placed.
In the ED, due to his refusal to be taken back to rehab, he was
held overnight to be evaluated by case management. D/t concern
of pt being very agitated, screaming and belligerent to staff,
ED doctors decided to obtain labs, urine and found pt to have a

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ y/o male with autism spectrum disorder,
peripheral vascular disease, type 2 DM on insulin, and chronic
osteomyelitis of the right foot s/p TMA on ___ and s/p Unasyn IV
x6 weeks who presents from a rehab facility due to agitation and
conflicts with the staff.
#Agitation: Patient was agitated on arrival, but he is easily
redirectable. Review of old Atrius records reveals that patient
has had a long-standing history of acting out behavioral events,
so his current episodes are likely not due to any new pathology.
Infectious and toxic metabolic workup on admission were negative
for any new infections or metabolic abnormalities. He was
evaluated by our psychiatry team who recommended Depakote 250 mg
PO BID for mood stabilization and Seroquel 25 mg po BID prn for
agitation. He has done well with this regimen. Psychiatry also
believed that he does not have decision-making capacity to leave
AMA, but this will need to be reevaluated if it again becomes an
issue. We also discussed with his HCP ___ and ___,
who both agreed that this current mental status is similar to
how he has been in the past. We had several conversations with
his HCP and friend, and they explained that Mr. ___ is very
particular about his living situation. There are several things
that are important to him including food that he likes and a
functional TV with the correct channels. His HCP will be
returning to the US on ___ and will be able to visit and
assist with the patient's care and decision-making.
#Chronic osteomyelitis of right foot: He is s/p TMA on ___ and
was started on 6 weeks of IV Unasyn with a PICC line. His 6 week
course of Unasyn ended on ___ without complications. He denies
any pain in his foot or infectious symptoms, and his vital signs
have remained stable throughout. He was evaluated by our ID and
podiatry teams, who felt no new changes had to be made. His
wound vac was changed every 3 days, and he is to continue non
weight-bearing on the right foot until clearance from podiatry.
His PICC was removed prior to discharge. He will see Dr.
___ 1 week after discharge for follow-up. There
is no further indication for antibiotics at this time.
#Tinea cruris: He was found to have diffuse tinea cruris in the
groin folds and was started on miconazole powder BID, with good
improvement. He should continue this until the infection has
improved.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
# Type 2 DM: Continued home insulin with slight change (Lantus
20U breakfast and bedtime, along with Humalog ISS)
# CAD s/p DES: Continued ASA 81 mg daily, Atorva 80 mg daily,
Metoprolol 50 mg daily

KEY IMAGING
================================
MR FOOT ___ CONTRAST RIGHT ___: The study is limited
due to patient motion and susceptibility artifacts. There are
no obvious signs of osteomyelitis and no rim enhancing fluid
collections. Multiple patchy areas of bone marrow edema with
mild enhancement are not adjacent to soft tissue ulcers, and are
unlikely to represent osteomyelitis. In addition, the T1 marrow
signal appears preserved.
C SPINE NONTRAUMA ___ VIEWS ___:
FINDINGS: C1 through C6 are demonstrated on lateral view. No
prevertebral swelling is identified. Cervical lordosis is
preserved. Vertebral body and disc heights are preserved. No
fracture or spondylolisthesis is detected. No suspicious lytic
or sclerotic lesion is identified. The lateral masses are
symmetric about the dens. No radiopaque foreign body. Surgical
clips project over the upper extremity.
IMPRESSION: No radiopaque foreign body.
DX THORACIC AND LUMBAR SPINE X-RAY ___ : 5
non-rib-bearing lumbar vertebral bodies are present. Vertebral
body and disc heights are preserved. No fracture or
dislocation. Anterior bridging osteophytes are noted at
multiple levels. No suspicious lytic or sclerotic lesion is
identified. Severe degenerative changes are seen in the
bilateral femoroacetabular joints. No radiopaque foreign body.
IMPRESSION: No dorsal radiopaque foreign body.
ARTRERIAL DOPLLE REXAM (REST ONLY) ___: Doppler waveform
analysis reveals triphasic waveforms at the right common femoral
and superficial femoral arteries with monophasic waveforms at
the right popliteal, posterior tibial, and dorsalis pedis.
Waveforms are triphasic at the left common femoral and
superficial femoral arteries, and biphasic at the popliteal,
posterior tibial and dorsalis pedis. Ankle-brachial indices
could not be obtained due to noncompressible vessels. Pulse
volume recordings demonstrate mild dampening at the right thigh
there is significant dampening at the right calf and only
minimal deflection at the right ankle. Waveforms are normal
throughout the left lower extremity.
IMPRESSION: Significant right popliteal and tibial arterial
disease
================================
MICROBIOLOGY
================================
___ BLOOD CULTURE: Negative
___ BLOOD CULTURE: Negative
___ BLOOD CULTURE: Negative
___ URINE CULTURE: BETA STREPTOCOCCUS GROUP B
Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old man with history of bilateral transmetatarsal
amputation, peripheral arterial disease, diabetes mellitus type
2 who presented to ___ ED with concern for decreased safety at
home by home ___ service and was found to have acute kidney
injury, right lower extremity cellulitis and orthostatic
hypotension with supine hypertension.
#orthostasis: in setting of supine hypertension. Asymptomatic
without dizziness, lightheadedness, chest pain or shortness of
breath. Not fluid responsive, most likely multifactorial with
autonomic neuropathy in setting of poorly controlled DM and
medication effect secondary to metoprolol, tamsulosin. We
discussed the risks and benefits of stopping metoprolol with
both Mr. ___ and his healthcare proxy Mr. ___. At
discharge we will continue trial of fludrocortisone 0.2 mg daily
which allows SBP to remain above 90 with position changes. Mr.
___ would benefit from continued optimization of this regimen.
He may need nighttime calcium channel blocker once orthostasis
optimized or outpatient ___ clinic evaluation
(___). On day of discharge, standing BP of more than
110 and he is asymptomatic.
# Failure to Thrive: Sent to ___ ED for inability to ambulate
at home by ___. Physical therapy recommended rehabilitation,
patient not amenable. Given patient and health care proxy's
refusal for rehabilitation, current goal was to maximize home
services for 24hr care until Mr. ___ can find suitable
long-term nursing facility via ___.
# Right foot cellulitis
# Bilateral Transmetatarsal Amputation, Eschar, Skin breakdown:
surrounding area of erythema around right foot exhar. Most
concerning for cellulitis given no prurlence and small size of
erythema did not cover for MRSA. Podiatry was consulted: x-ray
without sign of chronic osteomyeltitis (low concern for acute).
Repeat arterial studies show significant right popliteal and
tibial arterial disease. MRI of right foot without signs of
osteomyelitis. He completed 10 days of antibiotics
___. He will follow-up with podiatry as outpatient.
=============================
CHRONIC ISSUES:
=============================
# Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Patient administers insulin at home
and has done so for years. He is able to articulate what he
should do if he thinks his blood sugar is low or if he is sick
and not eating. During this admission he had an episode of
fasting hypoglycemia so lantus dose was decreased to 22units
BID. If patient amenable as outpatient a sliding scale may be
helpful.
# Coronary Artery Disease s/p drug eluting stent: Continued home
ASA 81 mg daily, Atorvastatin 80 mg daily. Metoprolol was
discontinued secondary to continued orthostasis.
# Constipation: Continued home miralax
# Peptic ulcer disease: Continued home ranitidine 150 mg daily
# Chronic pain: Continued home gabapentin 100 mg PO qhs
# Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy: Continue home finasteride.
Tamsulosin was held in setting of orthostatic hypotension.
=============================
RESOLVED ISSUES
=============================
# Acute Kidney Injury: Creatinine was 1.4 on admission and
returned to baseline of 1.0-1.1 (similar to ___ with
intravenous fluid. Likely represented pre-renal azotemia in
setting of poor PO intake given Bun:Crt >2 and rapid
improvement.
# Urinary Tract Infection: UA grossly positive in ED but Ucx
with GBS. Patient received five days ceftriaxone ending on
___. Patient did complete ten day course of antibiotics
with augmentin for cellulitis which likely provided additional
coverage.
# h/o of foreign metallic body: Both patient and healthcare
proxy report "pin in back" from unknown source. Spine x-rays
without radio-opaque foreign body. Patient tolerated MRI this
admission without incident
=============================
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
=============================
DISCONTINUED MEDICATIONS: metoprolol, tamsulosin
NEW MEDICATIONS: fludracortisone 0.2mg daily
[ ] continue to titrate fludacortisone as needed
[ ] consider graded compression stockings (discharged with ___
compression stockings), abdominal binder, nighttime calcium
channel blocker once orthostasis optimized or outpatient
___ clinic evaluation (___)
[ ] assess ability to restart metoprolol if orthostasis improves
[ ] Decreased lantus to 22units BID due to episode of fasting
hypoglycemia. Consider insulin sliding scale at meal times if
Mr. ___ is willing
[ ] wound care: betadine wet to dry dressing daily
[ ] weight bearing as tolerated
[ ] follow-up with podiatry as scheduled
[ ] follow-up with PCP as scheduled
DIscussion regarding his disposition: a summary from prior notes
At this point Mr ___ and HCP are refusing SNF/LTAC requesting
discharge home. Although Mr ___ does not have capacity to
make
this decision (unable to articulate risks/consequences of going
home with inadequate supervision) his HCP ___ is
able
to. He understands Mr ___ is at risk of falls, infection,
poor
hygiene, and death unable to adequately care for himself
independently and unable to self-pay for additional care;
however, Mr ___ justifies that he is willing to accept these
risks on Mr ___ behalf due to the emotional distress and
regression it will place him under returning to ___ at this
time.
Despite recommendations from the medical team, case management,
social work, ___ services, ___, and psychiatry that Mr ___
needs
more assistance at home, which neither we nor self-pay can
provide, Mr ___ continues to accept the risk of going home.
At this point he wants to give Mr ___ one last try on his own,
and if he fails will proceed with LTAC placement at that time.
As per legal counsel we cannot overturn the HCP's decision, even
though we advise against it, unless we feel there is immediate
and grave danger or he is not doing what he believes is in the
patient's best interest. Despite the risks of going home there
is not a compelling enough grave or immediate danger that would
force us to overturn patient's HCP.
At this point recommend optimizing the safest discharge home
with
maximizing and distributing ___ services over as many days of
the
week as possible, requesting assistance from Mr ___ to fill
in the gaps, and additional DME in the house. Given the
frequent
___ visits they can quickly assess and intervene if patient is
failing at home and currently at risk for infection or
unacceptable states of hygiene.

Brief Hospital Course:
BRIEF SUMMARY
=============
___ year old man with history of bilateral transmetatarsal
amputation, PAD, T2DM presenting for osteomyelitis of ___ R
metatarsal. Pt underwent vascular procedure on RLE as below
without complications. His discharge was unfortunately
significantly held up by insurance issues. He subsequently
suffered an acute neurologic event, likely a seizure
precipitated by a UTI, that prolonged his stay further. He
ultimately returned to baseline after a brief stay ___ the neuro
ICU as below.
PROBLEM-BASED COURSE
====================
# R fifth metatarsal Osteomyelitis: Pt with history of chronic
wound p/w new ulcer on lateral aspect of right foot that probed
to bone. Diagnosed with osteomyelitis based on XR evidence and
clinical exam. CRP also markedly elevated to 127.5 on admission.
ED wound cultures grew pan-sensitive pseudomonas. Non-invasive
vascular studies were inconclusive regarding the patency of his
existing graft. Further, the surgical teams noted increased pus
from his right foot ulcer and felt further interventions were
necessary. He was started on empiric coverage with daptomycin,
cefepime, and flagyl given a history of enterobacter and his
care was transitioned to the vascular surgery service.
Infectious disease was consulted who recommended cefepime (IV)
and flagyl as appropriate antibiotic coverage for cultures, and
recommended levofloxacin (PO) and flagyl if patient were to
refuse IV antibiotics, as he had done during previous
admissions. On ___ he underwent RLE angiogram, which showed
occlusion of the AK-popliteal-to-AT bypass graft. He then
underwent a R SFA/pop PTA/stent via retrograde AT access on
___. For the remainder of his stay he had several bedside
debridements with podiatry with routine wound care. He finished
a 6 week course of cefepime/flagyl, as well as 30 days of
Plavix. No antibiotics or Plavix required on discharge.
#Capacity: the patient has a known (and well-documented) history
of non-compliance and disagreement with medical recommendations
regarding his care, and thus was followed by pyschiatry, social
work and complex case management throughout the course of his
hospitalization to facilitate goals of care discussion. Capacity
is a situation-dependent evaluation and the patient was
evaluated by psychiatry as needed throughout his
hospitalization. He was deemed to have capacity, and he agreed
with proceeding with anigogram on ___.
#Seizure: (Neuro ICU Course ___ - ___ On ___, the patient's
nurses called ___ code because he was found to be unresponsive. He
did have a pulse. He was mildly hypoxemic briefly, and was
having multiple episodes of emesis. On evaluation of the
patient, he was somnolent but arousable, not able to answer
questions or follow commands. The patient was transferred to the
CVICU where he was evaluated by the neurology team who was
concerned for possible stroke based on exam. Head CT showed
unclear aged stroke. Neuro was concerned about possible seizure
focus leading to status epilepticus vs. a new brainstem stroke.
He was intubated for airway protection, and was subsequently
transferred to the Neuro-ICU for further care. A CTA revealed
likely a chronically occluded right ICA, and a hypoplastic right
vertebral artery, but no major vessel occlusions. A subsequent
MRI did not show evidence of acute infarction. He was monitored
on cvEEG which did not show seizures. He was weaned to
extubation on ___. Infectious work up revealed a urinalysis
concerning for a urinary tract infection, though no organism was
identified. No clear etiology was identified for his sudden
change ___ clinical status, although the leading possibility was
that the urinary tract infection led to a decreased seizure
threshold, with his previous stroke factor as a possible nidus
for his seizure. His home Depakote, which he had been taking for
mood issues, was increased for seizure prevention. Other
possibilities were explored, including toxic ingestion (negative
tox screen), medication effect (no significant medication
changes around the time of the event). Regarding his stroke risk
factors, he was continued on ASA and atorvastatin.
#UTI: As above, it was thought that UTI could have potentially
triggered above seizure. UA with large leuks, WBC >182 although
nitrites negative. ___ urine culture negative, and patient was
started on CTX given possible provocation of seizure by UTI.
Completed 7 day course. Patient had an issue with urinary
retention requiring foley insertion and initiation of
finasteride, but subsequently passed voiding trial and foley was
removed. Pt had a subsequent urine culture that grew
enterococcus, but sample was contaminated and pt was
asymptomatic without fevers or elevated white count, elected not
to treat. ___ the future, if the patient requires catheter
placement, begin with a ___ coude catheter. There was minimal
resistance with this sized catheter.
#Nutriton: Because of poor PO intake, pt was initiated on tube
feeds to supplement caloric intake. The nutrition teamed
followed the patient and provided ongoing recommendations. His
diet was ultimately advanced to thin liquids and soft solids on
discharge.
# Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Initially continued home 22U
glargine qAM and QHS with SSI. Because of poor glycemic control,
the ___ diabetes team was consulted and made adjustments to
his insulin regimen. When he initiated tube feeds, he was put on
a regular insulin sliding scale. On discharge, his insulin
regimen consisted of 22U glargine at bedtime with sliding scale
Humalog.
# Hypotension: When transferred to the floor after his neuro ICU
stay, pt was having asymptomatic episodes of hypotension. These
resolved with adjusting antihypertensives - his home losartan
was stopped, metoprolol was decreased to 6.125mg BID, and
florinef was stopped. No evidence of infection.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
# Coronary Artery Disease s/p drug eluting stent: Continued home
ASA, atorvastatin
# Orthostatic Hypotension: Continued home fludrocortisone
initially, but was subsequently discontinued given normotension.
# Constipation: Pt was maintained on aggressive bowel regimen
# Peptic ulcer disease: Continued home ranitidine 150 mg daily
# Depression:
# Autism spectrum d/o: Continued home Escitalopram Oxalate 20 mg
PO DAILY; Continued home Divalproex (DELayed Release) 250 mg PO
DAILY initially, but this dose was increased for seizure
prophylaxis as above. Continued home QUEtiapine Fumarate 25 mg
PO BID:PRN agitation.
#HTN: Initially continued Losartan 25 mg daily, but this was
stopped I/s/o hypotension. Decreased metoprolol tartrate to
6.125 BID.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
[ ] Continue Depakote at current dose, no need to target
specific level
[ ] Please continue to monitor for signs of aspiration
[ ] FYI foley is difficult to place, needs Urology to place
given known urethral strictures. ___ the future, if the patient
requires catheter placement, begin with a ___ coude catheter.
There was minimal resistance with this sized catheter.
[ ] As above, pt had multiple episodes of asymptomatic
hypotension. Blood pressure control should be addressed on an
ongoing basis

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___.
WHY DID YOU COME TO THE HOSPITAL?
You needed a procedure done to your leg to restore blood flow to
it.
WHAT HAPPENED WHILE YOU WERE HERE?
You had the procedures that you needed to allow for enough
bloodflow to your leg. Our podiatry team cleaned out your foot
wounds multiple times, and you were treated with antibiotics
through your IV. You unfortunately had an episode of acute
confusion and difficulty with your breathing, for which you
needed to be intubated for a few days (a tube was put down your
throat to help you breathe). You had an MRI done of your brain
that showed an old stroke, but nothing new. We believe the
reason for your confusion was a seizure. We increased your
Depakote which you were taking for your mood to a dose which
also prevents seizures.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO WHEN YOU LEAVE THE HOSPITAL?
Please continue to take all of your medications as directed, and
follow up with all of your doctors.
Again, it was a pleasure taking care of you!
Sincerely,
Your ___ Team

History of Present Illness:
___ year old female with h/o SCC (esophagus, lung, piriform
sinus) s/p resection/CyberKnife followed by chemo + XRT who
presents with dyspnea. She reports that she has had dyspnea "on
and off" for several years. She notices that it is worse when
she is up and about--doing her hair or getting dressed. She
doesn't do much more exertion than that. She has also had
chronic orthopnea, always using several pillows to sleep on.
She can't think of any other symptoms that accompany her
dyspnea--no chest pain, no dizziness, no palpitations. She has
never had fevers or cough. She has intermittent swelling of her
leg also, but this is when she is standing on it for a long
time. She says this specific episode started yesterday night,
but it has already resolved now "because I am resting".
In the ED, initial vitals 98.6 66 150/96 22 100%. She was given
lasix IV without improvement in symptoms. Her labs were
remarkable for: Hgb at baseline (___), normal electrolyte,
creatinine at baseline 1.2, and BNP elevated at 8000 from
baseline of 5000. She had a CXR which was nonspecific so then
she had a CTA chest which was negative for a PE but did show
significant emphysema and RLL GGO with septal thickening.
Because of these imaging findings she was given a dose of
levofloxacin IV in the ED and admitted to medicine.

There is significant bullous and centrilobular emphysema. A
left lower lobe malignancy treated with CyberKnife is grossly
unchanged in size and appearance. The ___ lesion in the right
upper lobe treated with CyberKnife is also grossly unchanged in
size.
CTA CHEST: The aorta and main thoracic vessels are well
opacified. The aorta demonstrates normal caliber throughout the
thorax without intramural hematoma or dissection. The pulmonary
arteries are opacified to the segmental level. There is no
filling defect to suggest pulmonary embolism. No arteriovenous
malformation is seen.
oSSEOUS STRUCTURES: No focal osseous lesion concerning for
malignancy.
Although this study is not designed for assessment of
intra-abdominal
structures, the liver demonstrates a lobular contour in the
posterior right lobe with an adjacent area of possible
hyperdensity, incompletely
characterized on this study. This area was not found to be FDG
avid on PET scan from ___.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolus.
2. Interval progression of right lower lobe ground glass
opacities and
interlobular septal thickening likely due to recurrent
aspiration but
superimposed infection cannot be excluded.
3. Significant bullous and centrilobular emphysema.
4. Unchanged size of lung nodules seen in the right lower lobe.
5. Lobular contour of the posterior right lobe of the liver with
an adjacent area of hyperdensity, incompletely characterized on
this study. This area was not found to be FDG avid on PET scan
from ___. Attention on follow-up study is
recommended.
6. Chronic findings include: stable appearance of right upper
lobe and left lower lobe malignant nodules status post
CyberKnife treatment, neoesophagus, moderate cardiomegaly and
small, left greater than right bilateral pleural effusions.

___ VIDEO SWALLOW EVAL:
FINDINGS:
Barium passes freely through the oropharynx and esophagus
without evidence of obstruction. Intermittent penetration was
noted without gross aspiration. For details, please refer to
speech and swallow note in OMR.
IMPRESSION:
Intermittent penetration, no aspiration.
.
___ BARIUM SWALLOW EVAL:
IMPRESSION:
A short segment stricture immediately proximal to the site of
anastomosis
prevents passage of a 13 mm barium tablet, but presents no
obstruction to the flow of liquids.
.
___ TRANSTHORACIC ECHO:
This study was compared to the prior study of ___.
LEFT ATRIUM: Mild ___.
LEFT VENTRICLE: Normal LV wall thickness. Normal LV cavity size.
Depressed LVEF. No resting LVOT gradient.
RIGHT VENTRICLE: Normal RV chamber size and free wall motion.
AORTA: Normal aortic diameter at the sinus level. Focal
calcifications in aortic root. Normal ascending aorta diameter.
Focal calcifications in ascending aorta. Normal aortic arch
diameter. Focal calcifications in aortic arch.
AORTIC VALVE: Mildly thickened aortic valve leaflets (3). No AS.
MITRAL VALVE: Mildly thickened mitral valve leaflets. Mild
mitral annular calcification. Mild thickening of mitral valve
chordae. Calcified tips of papillary muscles. No MS. ___ to
severe (3+) MR.
___ VALVE: Mildly thickened tricuspid valve leaflets. TVP.
Normal tricuspid valve supporting structures. No TS. Mild to
moderate [___] TR. Moderate PA systolic hypertension.
PULMONIC VALVE/PULMONARY ARTERY: Normal pulmonic valve leaflet.
No PS. Physiologic PR. Normal main PA. No Doppler evidence for
PDA
PERICARDIUM: Small pericardial effusion. No echocardiographic
signs of tamponade.
GENERAL COMMENTS: Bilateral pleural effusions. Ascites.
Conclusions
The left atrium is mildly dilated. Left ventricular wall
thicknesses are normal. The left ventricular cavity size is
normal. LV systolic function appears depressed (ejection
fraction 30 percent) secondary to severe hypokinesis of the
inferior septum, inferior free wall, posterior wall, and lateral
wall. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are
normal. There are focal calcifications in the aortic arch. The
aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic
stenosis is not present. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly
thickened. Moderate to severe (3+) mitral regurgitation is seen.
The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened (a vegetation
cannot be excluded). Tricuspid valve prolapse is present. There
is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a
small pericardial effusion. There are no echocardiographic signs
of tamponade.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___,
mitral and tricuspid regurgitation are significantly increased.
Left ventricular ejection fraction is reduced. Pleural and
pericardial effusions, as well as ascites are now seen.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old female with h/o multiple squamous cell cancers
(lung, esophagus and sinuses) s/p resections and chemo/XRT who
presented with chronic dyspnea and dysphagia. Found to have new
systolic heart failure and esophageal stricture.
# Acute on chronic systolic heart failure, EF 30%: Regional
wall motion abnormalities suggest ischemic cause for her
failure. Overall, she appeared well compensated for her heart
failure clinically with only mild edema and dyspnea, still with
normal oxygen saturation on room air. However, we did change
her medication regimen to optimize her heart rate less than 70,
blood pressure, and allow for diuretic use for dyspnea relief.
Her discharge cardiac regimen is: aspirin 81 mg daily,
metoprolol succinate 50 mg daily, lisinopril 40 mg daily,
furosemide 10 mg every other day. She was also continued on
atorvastatin 80 mg daily and ezetimibe.
# Afib: ___ score is 2 but she was taking aspirin only. She
did not know about her increased risk of stroke from afib.
After discussion of the risks and benefits of anticoagulation,
she would like to start. Her primary care doctor thinks she
will have high barriers to INR draws, and so we started
dabigatran instead. She is rate controlled currently with her
metoprolol succinate 50 mg daily.
# Dysphagia: She describes her symptoms as a sensation that food
gets stuck in her throat at about the level of the clavicle.
More problems with swallowing solid foods (needs to wash
everything down with water). She had a h/o numerous squamous
cell cancers (lung, esophagus, and sinuses) now all are felt to
be in remission per the oncologists. She underwent a video
swallow which showed no oropharyngeal aspiration. She had a
barium swallow which showed a stricture at the anastomosis of
her esophagus and her neo-esophagus. She underwent an EGD with
biopsy of this site, the results of which are pending.
Depending on the biopsy results, there are plans for either a
dilation of the stricture (if biopsy is benign) or stent
placement (if biopsy is malignant) to relieve her symptoms.
# Previous lung cancer: She had a CTA chest which did not show
any PE but did show extensive emphysema and changes from chronic
aspiration in the right lung. Her previously treated lung
cancer (with cyberknife) was stable.
# Hyperlipidema: continued atorvastatin and ezetimibe
# Glaucoma: continued ophthal gtts
# GERD: continued omeprazole
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
- Follow up biopsy of esophageal stricture and re-arrange GI
follow-up for either dilation of the stricture (if biopsy is
benign) or stent placement (if biopsy is malignant) to relieve
her symptoms.
- Patient needs to have an appointment with her prosthetics
specialist since her prosthetic leg does not fit perfectly now
that she has lost so much weight.
- Started pradaxa for afib.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital because of shortness of breath
that had been coming and going for a very long time. You had
investigations of your heart which showed that it is not pumping
well with each beat. This is called heart failure and we needed
to change some of your blood pressure medications to help
protect the heart from further damage.
You also had a CT scan of your lungs, which showed that you have
severe emphysema. This is from smoking for so many years.
Patients with emphysema have ongoing shortness of breath,
especially while walking or doing exercises.
You were also having trouble swallowing solid foods. You had a
swallowing test performed and it showed a narrowing in the
distal esophagus. You had 2 camera studies done with biopsies
to look for another cancer in the esophagus. They will let you
know what the biopsy results show at your follow-up
appointments. You will probably need more treatments to open
this area up further.
It was a pleasure taking care of you in the hospital!

periventricular white
matter hypodensities are most consistent with chronic small
vessel ischemic
disease. Hypodensity in the right putamen may be prior lacunar
infarct vs
perivascular space. The gray-white matter differentiation is
preserved.
There is a moderate left parietal scalp hematoma. No fracture
is identified.
There is mild mucosal thickening within the left maxillary
sinus. The
remainder of the visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air
cells, and middle
ear cavities are clear.
IMPRESSION:
1. No acute intracranial process.
2. Left parietal scalp hematoma without associated fracture.
3. Chronic small vessel ischemic disease.
.
CXR ___ 2:36 ___
FINDINGS: Single portable view of the chest. No prior. Low
lung volumes
seen on the current exam. There is no large confluent
consolidation. The
upper mediastinal contour appears prominent, potentially in part
due to
tortuous vessels and low lung volumes and portable technique.
Cardiac
silhouette is however normal given technique. Surgical clips
seen in the
right upper quadrant. There is no visualized fracture.
IMPRESSION: Prominent upper mediastinal caliber, potentially
due to tortuous
vessels, portable supine technique. PA and lateral may offer
additional
detail when patient is amenable.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms ___ is a ___ ___ speaking woman with h/o DM, HTN, CVA
___ who presents with syncopal episode preceded by
lightheadedness, nausea, palpitations.
.
# Syncope
History suggestive of vasovagal syncope given preceding prodrome
of nausea, palpitations and blurry vision. History of
orthostatic symptoms and previous h/o stroke concerning for
possible vertebrobasilar insufficency or peripheral neuropathy
with autonomic dysfunction from DM. However, review of OSH
records revealed recent MRA with normal posterior ciruculation.
No concern for seizure given no previous h/o seizure and no
suggestive findings per witness. Cardiac symptoms also
concerning for potential cardiac cause such as valvular disease
or arrhythmia. Her cardiac enzymes were negative and EKG was
reassuring. Review of recent OSH echocardiogram revealed normal
valvular function. The patient had no events on telemetry during
her inpatient stay. However, the patient is currently being
evaluated with 30 day event monitoring for work-up of paroxysmal
atrial fibrillation. Review of medications revealed that daily
injections of "cerebrolysin" (see below) could potentially
contribute to her symptoms. She was instructed to stop using
this until further evaluation. (While metformin does not
typically cause hypoglycemia and patient's BG was normal to
elevated during her course, she does not monitor BG with
relationship to symptoms.) The patient improved symptomatically
overnight. Her orthostatic vital signs were within normal limits
and she was feeling well prior to discharge. The patient was
instructed to folow up with her PCP for further evaluation upon
discharge.
.
# Diabetes Mellitus.
The patient reports recent diagnosis of DM with A1C of 7.5. Her
metformin was held in the inpatient setting and she was treated
with sliding scale insulin. She was discharged on her previous
dose of metformin. She should follow up with her PCP for further
monitoring. She should be encouraged to check her BG with
symptoms of hypoglycemia.
.
# HTN
Hypertensive in ED to 176/86 but normalized upon arrival to the
floor. She remained normotensive for the remainder of her course
and was discharged on her home regimen of lisinopril and
amlodipine.
.
# HLP
She was discharged on her home dose Simvastatin 40mg daily. Her
CK was WNL. This should be re-evaluated in the outpatient
setting and potentially reduced to Simvastatin 20mg given risk
of rhabdomyalysis with concomittent use of Amlodipine.
.
# h/o CVA
No intracranial hemorrhage noted on CT. Neuro exam stable
throughout her course. She was continued on Aspirin 81mg daily.
Of note, the patient reported that she was using an injectable
medication for stroke prevention. While the exact details
including drug name and dosage could not be confirmed, the
description was consistent with drug called "cerebrolysin." As
this drug has the potential to cause dizziness, flushing and
palpitations, it may contribute to some of the symptoms the
patient is describing. Relationship of symptoms to timing of use
unclear but it appears that she uses daily injection for 30 days
___. She was asked to discontinue use until further
investigation by her PCP or neurologist.
.
# SCALP LACERATION
Patient incurred 3 cm laceration as a result of her fall. This
was repaired in the ED. She was instructed to follow up with her
PCP for removal of staples in one week.
Medications on Admission:
Metformin 500mg daily

Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Clear and coherent.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms ___,
You were admitted to the hospital because you had a fall and
injured your scalp. While you were here, we did some tests that
showed you had no bleeding in your brain, and you got staples
put in to close the cut in your scalp. We also monitored your
heart and found no abnormalities while you were here. Please
continue wearing the heart monitor and follow up with your
primary care physician within one week of discharge for further
evaluation and for removal of the staples in your scalp.
We obtained records from your previous doctors which ___
___ that your heart and blood flow to your brain were not likely
causing your dizziness. When you follow up with your primary
care doctor and your neurologist, it is very important to tell
them that you are taking "cerebrolysin," as this could be
responsible for some of your symptoms. For now, we would
recommend that you stop taking this until further discussion
with your doctors. You should also be careful when using the
medication, alprazolam, as it can also cause dizziness and
increase your chances of falling. You should also discuss this
medication with your doctor.
MEDICATION CHANGES:
STOP cerebrolysin
It was a pleasure taking care of you.

None
History of Present Illness:
HPI: Our patient is a ___ ___ speaking woman who
presents with one day of decreased sensation in her left arm and
left leg. She is interviewed with the assistance of a ___
interpreter. She has a reported history of prior ischemic stroke
in ___ which resulted in left arm and left leg numbness,
weakness, and clumsiness, and she has vascular risk factors
including hypertension, diabetes, and obstructive sleep apnea
(not on CPAP). She recovered from those symptoms over a course
of
5 months. She takes clopidogrel and reports adherence to her
medications. She has some baseline left-sided weakness but
noticed that at 11 AM yesterday while leaving a store her arm
and
leg became "harder to control." She describes the sensory change
as diminishment and "numbness." Some small movements of her
hands
became more difficult. These symptoms did not involve her face
or
right side. These persisted to today and have not improved or
worsened per her report. She denies any other symptoms and feels
that the symptoms are less severe than they were with her prior
stroke; these are otherwise the exact same symptoms in the
absence of headache and dizziness which she also had the time of
the prior reported stroke.
She has otherwise been well recently and denies any antecedent
illness or infectious symptoms. Two weeks ago she had a dull,
frontal and vertex, non-throbbing headache for a few days that
went away in the absence of any other symptoms. In ___, she had
fallen and hit her ___ but had no subsequent consequences of
that injury.
It is not clear if she has a Neurologist but she has received
some neurologic testing in the ___ system. She reports
that in recent months she had an electromyogram and nerve
conduction study which revealed some degree of neuropathy in her
right arm and right leg. This was performed because she was
complaining of some pain in those limbs. She claimed she had an
MRI here in ___, but it turns out that this was a CT scan last
___.
On neurologic review of systems, the patient denies headache,
lightheadedness, or confusion.
Denies difficulty with producing or comprehending speech.
Denies loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, vertigo,
tinnitus, hearing difficulty, dysarthria, or dysphagia.
Denies muscle weakness.
Denies loss of sensation.

FINDINGS: There is normal compressibility, flow and augmentation
of the
bilateral common femoral, proximal femoral, mid femoral, distal
femoral, and
popliteal veins. Normal color flow is demonstrated in the
posterior tibial
and peroneal veins. There is normal respiratory variation in the
common
femoral veins bilaterally.
IMPRESSION: No evidence of deep vein thrombosis in bilateral
lower extremity
veins.
MR ___ w/o contrast and MRA ___ ___:
MR ___: Ventricles and sulci are mildly enlarged, reflecting
parenchymal
volume loss. There is no intracranial hemorrhage. Note is made
of
periventricular and deep white matter FLAIR signal
hyperintensities,
indicative of chronic microvascular disease. Note is made of
abnormally slow
diffusion involving the right periventricular white matter,
extending
inferiorly towards the posterior aspect of the the right
external capsule.
Encephalomalacia noted in the right paramedian frontal lobe, in
keeping with
prior vascular insult.
MR ANGIOGRAM NECK: As noted above, time-of-flight MR
angiography is obtained,
without intravenous contrast. The patient declined contrast
injection and
chose to abort the examination. Images acquired of the cervical
vertebral,
common carotid and internal carotid arteries show no luminal
caliber
irregularities to suggest pseudoaneurysm, dissection or
thromboembolic filling
defect. However, note should be made that the origins of these
vessels are
not distinctly visualized.
MR ANGIOGRAM ___: Primary intracranial arterial structures
demonstrate
appropriate signal intensity. There are no luminal caliber
irregularities to
suggest aneurysm, dissection or occlusive thromboembolic filling
defect.
Anatomy is conventional in orientation.
IMPRESSION:
1. New curvilinear right infarction, appearing to involve areas
of right
periventricular white matter, extend inferiorly towards the
right external
capsule.
2. No intracranial hemorrhage.
3. Normal MR angiography of the ___ and neck. Please note
that the patient
refused intravenous contrast and further imaging and as such the
origins of
the vertebral and common carotid arteries are not visualized.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ ___ woman who presented with left-sided
weakness and sensory disturbances similar to prior symptoms of a
reported stroke in ___. Her symptoms of stroke in ___ included
a left hemiparesis and sensory loss from which she recovered
over five months; she has a residual left hemiparesis, reported
previously. She has diabetes, hypertension, and obstructive
sleep apnea. Her symptoms suddenly worsened 1 day PTA at 11 AM
in the absence of any apparent trigger. Her symptoms have
persisted without any improvement.
Her examination was notable for left nasolabial fold flattening,
left-handed pronation, left arm and left leg mild hemiparesis,
and minimal diminishment of light touch sensation in the left
arm and left leg (poorly localizing) with normal pin and
proprioception, left hand dysmetria, and left extensor plantar
response. These findings have now resolved.
Her noncontrast ___ CT is similar to a scan one year prior,
except perhaps a small hypodensity in the right pons and
midbrain which may be an artifact.
This clinical history was suspicious for reexpression of
symptoms from a prior neurologic injury (namely her prior
reported stroke) or a possible new injury from ischemic stroke
or another cause elsewhere along the
corticospinal-sensory-coordination pathways. Pt was therefore
admitted to the neurology service for a stroke workup.
She reports a prior clinical diagnosis of atrial fibrillation
without any documented evidence, including a negative ___ of
Heart outpatient monitoring recently. Her cardiologist is
unaware of any evidence that she has ever had atrial
fibrillation.
MRI of the brain did show a new right-sided subcortical infarct.
The following stroke risk factors were evaluated:
- MRA vessel imaging did not demonstrate any obvious occlusions.
- Telemetry monitoring showed no evidence of atrial fibrillation
or another abnormal rhythm
- Echocardiogram with bubble study showed a PFO with normal
cardiac function. B/l LENIs did not show a DVT
- Fasting lipid panel (TChol 132, HDL 33, LDL 77, ___ 109) at
goal. No change in lipid medications during this admission. Diet
and exercise education was provided, as this may help with
raising pt's HDL.
- A1C was 5.8 (nondiabetic)
- BP was under good control during this admission.
At this point, no etiology of pt's stroke has been determined;
however, her stroke appears embolic, and occasional paroxysmal
atrial fibrillation remains the strongest possibility. This was
discussed with pt's outpt cardiologist, who may pursue further
atrial fibrillation workup.
To prevent further strokes, anticoagulation with warfarin was
offered despite any firm evidence of atrial fibrillation.
However, pt refused this due to the complexity of monitoring.
Instead, it was decided to change pt's clopidogrel to ASA as pt
has had an ischemic events on the former.
Her other medications for HTN and hyperlipidemia will be
continued.
Pt will f/u in neurology stroke clinic with Dr. ___, and in
cardiology clinic with Dr. ___.

Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Clear and coherent.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted to the stroke service after you had sudden
onset of weakness on your left side. Although most of your
symptoms resolved within hours of your presentation there was
evidence of an ischemic stroke on your MRI. An ischemic stroke
is a condition where a blood vessel providing oxygen and
nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot. The brain is the
part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts
of your body, so damage to the brain from being deprived of its
blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms.
We did not see evidence of atrial fibrillation on your telemetry
or on ECGs. We discussed this with your cardiologist, Dr.
___ asked that you be seen in his clinic next week for
possible longer-term monitoring. You were taking only Plavix on
admission and there was some concern that you were not
responding to this medication. We opted to switch you to aspirin
at 325 mg daily. Although we discussed coumadin therapy, there
was no clear evidence of atrial fibrillation and you were
reluctant to start this medication given the complexity of
monitoring. The risks were explained to you that you may be at
risk for another stroke without coumadin, but you declined.
You will need to stop your Plavix (clopidegrel)
You will need to take aspirin (325 mg every day)
You will follow up with both Dr. ___ in cardiology and Dr.
___ in neurology.
All these discussion were had with the ___ interpreter over
the phone and you told us that you understood.

after having sudden onset "whooshing sound", increased floater
and visual aura in left visual field.
History obtained from her and her son at the bedside.
Unfortunately the records from ___ are not
available to me at this time. Per the patient, her troubles
began
when she has a superficial lower leg skin infection in early-mid
___ for which she took doxycycline. She then developed a UTI
and
was on some antibiotic for this. Then she was scheduled to see
her doctor ___ couple of weeks ago and while she was at the
doctors
office, she suddenly loss vision in her left visual field.
She then went to ___ who reportedly did NHCHCT with
showed
small L parietal hemorrhage. She was transferred to ___ for further management. MRI there actually showed right
occipital infarct and left parietal infarct with small
hemorrhagic conversion. She was also noted to be in atrial
fibrillation. Her stroke was attributed to atrial fibrillation.
They started aspirin and the plan was for repeat ___ and then
initiation of Eliquis as an outpatient given small left
hemorrhagic conversion. Her hospital course was complicated by
pneumonia. She also was having left visual field auras
consisting
of flashes of color, rain, images of face and cars. She had an
EEG which reportedly showed no seizures. She was discharged to
rehab ___. She did well at rehab and was discharged home on
___ of this week. She has been doing well at home with
ongoing
left visual field loss with intermittent auras. Her blood
pressures have been well controlled. She has had chronic left
and
bifrontal headaches without associated nausea/vomiting or
photophobia.
On the morning of presentation she developed a whooshing sounds
on the left side of her head. She had no change in the character
of her chronic headache. She had no nausea or vomiting. She also
noted increased visual auras in her left visual field (images of
rain, faces, cars). Due to this she went to ___. She was
neurologically normal with only known left visual field cut.
___ showed 5.7 x 2.7 x 4.5 hemorrhagic transformation of prior
known right occipital infarct with partial effacement of right
ventricle. Given this, she was transferred to ___ for further
care.

interval history and story quite well. She is currently having
her daily headache without increase in intensity or associated
n/v. She has no new numbness/tingling, weakness, visual symptoms
other than ones above, problems with speech. She denies fevers,
chills, cough, SOB, abdominal pain, dysuria, diarrhea.

pulmonary nodule smaller than 6 mm, no CT follow-up is
recommended in a low-risk patient, and an optional CT in 12
months is recommended in a high-risk patient.
___ CT abd/pelvis w: 1. Soft tissue mass interposed between the
left gluteus maximus and medius muscles, of uncertain etiology,
possibly a nerve sheath tumor. Nonemergent pelvic MRI with
without contrast is recommended for further evaluation.

Chest for
findings above the diaphragm.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Nonemergent pelvic MRI with without contrast
is
recommended.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old female with recent diagnosis of atrial
fibrillation on aspirin, recent who was admitted after
presentation for whooshing sound and increasing left visual
field positive visual phenomena found to have right occipital
hemorrhage likely due to hemorrhagic transformation. BPs were
well-controlled during her hospital stay, initially with
nicardipine gtt in the ICU, then with her home antihypertensives
once she was transferred to the floor. MRI head was done and
negative for evidence of CAA but did show small area of left SAH
at the vertex of the left parietal lobe. LDL was 67, HgbA1C 5.4.
Aspirin was initially held but restarted on ___. Her deficits
improved prior to discharge and the only notable persistent exam
finding was left homonymous hemianopsia, and continuing
intermittent L hemifield positive visual phenomena.
These positive visual phenomena were unclear seizure vs cortical
spreading depression. Extended routine EEG was performed, and
preliminary read shows no epileptiform activity, final read
pending. Suspect cortical spreading depression as etiology of
these phenomena. No antiepileptic medications were started.
MRI brain w/wo contrast did show significant contrast
enhancement of the R occipital infarct, which raised concern for
underlying lesion, though this could be fully explained by
enhancement of subacute infarction. She had CT torso which
showed 4mm lung nodule, no f/u needed given low risk patient;
4mm R breast nodule, for which radiology recommended mammogram.
However, Ms. ___ has had mammogram in the last several months
and knows that there is a breast lesion that has been followed
over time and is not felt to be concerning for malignancy. It is
possible that this lesion on CT is the same lesion. Also on CT
torso, a soft tissue mass between the left gluteus medius and
maximus was found, felt likely nerve sheath tumor on imaging.
Ms. ___ states that this lesion is known and has previously
been biopsied, so no further inpatient workup was pursued.
Course also complicated by leukocytosis to ___, with no fever
and no infectious s/s. This was discussed with hematology, who
noted that this has previously been worked up. Ms. ___ follows
with a hematologist as outpatient, and no workup was pursued as
inpatient.
Her stroke risk factors include the following:
1. Atrial fibrillation
2. Hypertension
3. Previous smoking

Discharge Diagnosis:
Hemorrhagic transformation of acute ischemic stroke

Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of hearing a "whooshing
sound" and increased floaters and visual aura in left visual
field resulting from HEMORHAGIC TRANSFORMATION of an acute
ischemic stroke, a condition where a blood vessel providing
oxygen and nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot.
Hemorrhagic transformation is a common problem after a stroke
from lack of blood. It means that there was some bleeding into
the area recently injured from lack of blood. The brain is the
part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts
of your body, so damage to the brain from being deprived of its
blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms.
EEG - You had an EEG, a brain wave test, to see if there was any
indication of some of your vision changes being from seizure.
The preliminary result of that test was normal. We ___ call you
if the final result (which ___ become available ___ is
anything other than normal.
We were also slightly worried because the area of stroke around
the area of bleeding picked up more contrast dye than we
expected, so, to be extra thorough, we looked for cancer. We saw
no signs of cancer in your body. We did see the small growth
between some of the muscles in your right buttock, but you told
us that this is known and has been biopsied in the past, so
there is nothing more that needs to be done about this. There
was also a tiny area of possible concern in your right breast,
and the radiologists thought it would be important for you to
get a mammogram, but you have had one recently and know of a
spot in your breast that has been followed over time and is not
thought to be concerning. We ___ send these records to your
primary care physician so she can compare this spot to the area
on the mammogram and make sure they are the same spot.
Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for
medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke.
In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk
factors. Your risk factors are:
1. Atrial fibrillation
2. Hypertension
3. Previous smoking
We are changing your medications as follows:
- No changes at this time.
- After MRI to be obtained in approx. 1.5 weeks (2 weeks after
you came in), talk to your Neurologist. If you do not have any
increased bleeding on that scan, your neurologist might switch
you from aspirin to a stronger blood thinner, apixaban.
Please take your other medications as prescribed.
Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician
as listed below.
If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek
emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical
Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur,
please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of
these symptoms:
- Sudden partial or complete loss of vision
- Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth
- Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to
you
- Sudden weakness of one side of the body
- Sudden drooping of one side of the face
- Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body
Sincerely,
Your ___ Neurology Team

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms ___ is a ___ year-old R-handed woman with PMH significant
for recent opthalmic artery/ICA aneurysm s/p coiling (at the end
of ___ who presented with right hand sensory changes.
Her MRI shows multiple White Matter FLAIR lesions (without
diffusion changes) only in the right hemisphere. They were not
present in the MRI done about 3 days after the aneurysm coiling,
but appears in the MRI done in the beginning of ___. This MRI
from the beginning ___ also showed some enhancement of one
of the FLAIR lesions (white matter underlying posterior insula).
She had recently an outpatient MRI which showed more ___ lesions.
Repeat MRI done during her hospitalization showed that more of
these lesions showed an enhancement while the original posterior
peninsular lesion showed less enhancement compared to the ___
MRI. LP shows: WBC: 0 RBC: 0 protein: 21 Glu: 68. However, more
detailed testing shows that she has 15 oligoclonal bands as well
as a high CSF IgG index. Very unclear what the etiology of these
lesions are. They appear to be inflammatory but not infectious
based on the CSF profile. The CSF pattern would be consistent
with an MS or ADEM pattern, however, her protein is normal. CSF
pattern could also be any other immunological reaction than MS.
___ pattern of lesions are not characteristic for MS and the
successive appearance of new lesions would make it less likely
to be ADEM. She also does not have any clinical history of
typical MS symptoms ___ intermittent visual problems, no double
vision, no unsteadiness and no episodes of incontinence).
It is of interest that all of the lesion are on the side of the
coil which raises the question of whether or not she has a
reaction to the coil or the contrast used during its placement -
though this would be a very uncommon reaction. The patient was
treated with IV solumedrol 1 G daily for 5 days followed by a PO
prednisode taper. She was given GI ppx while on steroids. She
will follow up in the neurology clinic and will have another MRI
after her next follow-up visit.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ was admitted to the gyn/onc service with
nausea/vomiting on ___ for suspected ileus after being
discharged from the hospital on the previous day. Patient was
made NPO. Her abdominal exam showed no peritoneal signs during
her stay and she remained afebrile with a normal white blood
cell count. An abdominal xray (supine and upright) demonstrated
multiple dilated loops of small bowel and air-fluid levels, with
air still seen in the colon. Per radiology, in the setting of
recent intervention, findings likely represent ileus. For this,
patient was managed conservatively. On hospital day 2, diet was
advanced to clears and crackers, but patient had an episode of
emesis and so was switched to bowel rest and IV fluids. was
passing flatus and subsequently had a bowel movement. On
hospital day 3, patient was passing more flatus and her diet was
slowly advanced to clear. She tolerated crackers and clears on
hospital day 4. She continued to pass flatus with bowel
movements and had a normal abdominal exam. That day, patient
noted some serosanguinous drainage from her incision site. This
was evaluated and approximately 5cc of serosanguinous fluid was
expressed. There was no evidence of infection at the time. On
hospital day #5, she was advanced to a regular diet, which she
tolerated well. She was thus discharged home in stable condition
on hospital day #5. Regarding the serosanguinous drainage,
patient was instructed to follow up on her post operative visit
and to call if she noticed any symptoms of purulent discharge,
erythema, fevers or pain at the incision site.

therapy was consulted and they recommended home with walker for
unsteady gait. She was treated with lidocaine patch,
cyclobenzaprine, acetaminphen, and loratadine. She was DC with
loratadine and lidocaine patches.
# Low grade fever
# Neutropenia

refused swab in ED. She was initially neutropenic, but counts
have recovered with GSF. Only localizing symptom was bump she
noted in right upper extremity where she injected Lovenox.
Ultrasound ___ with possible abscesses right upper
extremity, though much more likely small hematoma from injection
and exam benign. Nodule is nontender and without surrounding
erythema or warmth.
# Thrush

Extensive FDG avid left supraclavicular, bilateral axillary,
mesenteric, portocaval, retroperitoneal, and left inguinal
adenopathy as well as low right pelvis FDG avidity possibly
indicative of bowel involvement by lymphoma, and multiple foci
of FDG avidity in the bones, including the right iliac bone and
the sternum. She was continued on acyclovir and bactrim ppx, as
well as Ativan PRN, Zofran PRN, Compazine PRN.
# Tachycardia
Was also tachycardic last admission, likely due to pain,

History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ female with high grade
B-cell lymphoma s/p da-EPOCH-R x 6 cycles and prophylactic IT
MTX
x 3 doses complicated by RUE PICC-associated DVT and L2/3
compression fracture s/p kyphoplasty who presents with left
inguinal pain.
Patient reports 1 week of atraumatic left groin pain which
occasionally radiates down her left leg. She has no difficulty
walking. The pain is not worse with movement. The pain is
constant. She has been taking alternating Tylenol and ibuprofen
which helps initially but then the pain returns. She describes
it
is as "cramping" and "shooting". She has no dysuria or
hematuria.
She did have her first period in 6 months about 2 weeks ago and
so she initially thought that it was endometrial pain but the
pain persisted which makes her think is less likely to be that.
Her end-of-treatment PET:6 on ___ demonstrated marked
improvement of disease in all areas, but with persistent
FDG-avidity in a multiloculated cystic and solid pelvic mass.
She
had a pelvic MRI on ___ which showed extensive deep
infiltrating
endometriosis with overall increased fibrosis and obliteration
of the posterior cul-de-sac and tethering of the bowel. She was
seen by Gynecologic Oncology and ___ and was decided to defer
biopsy. She had repeat PET scan on ___ which showed stable
retroperitoneal and mesenteric adenopathy without increased
FDG-avidity, ___ 1. However, it also identified new
bilateral adnexal, oblong, tubular-like cystic ametabolic
structures, with lack of FDG-avidity and shape making
hydrosalpinx likely for which pelvic MRI was recommended. She
was
scheduled to have the MRI on ___.
On arrival to the ED, initial vitals were 97.0 112 111/64 22 98%
RA. Exam was unremarkable. Labs were unremarkable. UA was
positive. Urine culture was sent. Pelvic x-ray was negative for
fracture. Pelvic ultrasound showed large complex cystic
structures within the bilateral adnexa. MRI pelvis was performed
with read pending. Patient was given ceftriaxone 1g IV and 1L
NS.
Prior to transfer vitals were 98.3 72 108/68 16 98% RA.
On arrival to the floor, patient reports ___ left pelvic pain.
She denies fevers/chills, night sweats, headache, vision
changes,
dizziness/lightheadedness, weakness/numbness, shortness of
breath, cough, hemoptysis, chest pain, palpitations, abdominal
pain, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, hematemesis,
hematochezia/melena, dysuria, hematuria, and new rashes.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: A complete 10-point review of systems was
performed and was negative unless otherwise noted in the HPI.
Past Medical History:
PAST ONCOLOGIC HISTORY:
- ___: pelvic MRI showed splenomegaly and enlarged lymph
nodes involving the mesentery, retropecotral and periportal
space. Chest CT showed bilateral axillary lymphadenopathy, no
significant mediastinal lymphadenopathy, and confirmed
splenomegaly 13.6 cm, and multiple enlarged gastrohepatic and
___ lymph nodes.
- ___: ultrasound guided right axillary lymph node needle
core biopsy which showed follicular lymphoma, low grade. The
immunostaining showed the B cells positive for CD20, CD10,
BCL-2,
and BCL-6. Ki-67 showed a proliferative index of 15%.
- ___: Recommendation for expectant management with a 3
month follow-up CT for low grade lymphoma was made; she did not
keep her appointments.
- ___: ___ with nausea. CT showed: 1. interval
increase in size and number of numerous enlarged mesenteric,
retroperitoneal, and ___ lymph nodes in addition to
interval enlargement of the spleen is concerning for
lymphoproliferative disorder. 2. Complex multiloculated cystic
right adnexal lesion measuring 19 x 13 x 15 cm mildly increased
in size from prior study (15 x 12 x 14 cm). Interval enlargement
and extrinsic compression of the sigmoid colon against the
sacrum
are likely contributing to the patient's increasing constipation
and abdominal distension.
- ___: Initial visit to Gyn Onc for eval of adnexal mass.
Plan
for laparascopic surgical evaluation. Reported difficulty with
eating, bloating, unintentional 10 lb weight gain. She denies
n.v, pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, vaginal discharge, or
change
in her bladder habits.
- ___: Patient rescheduled surgery to ___.
- ___: ED for abdominal pain, resolved without intervention.
- ___: Admission for ex lap.
- ___: Exploratory laparotomy, bilateral ovarian
cystectomies
performed. Diagnosis: Bilateral ovarian endometriomas and pelvic
endometriosis. Biopsies sent. C/b post-op ileus.
- ___: Hem/pathology of ovary tissue: HIGH GRADE B-CELL
LYMPHOMA; SEE NOTE. By immunohistochemistry, the abnormal
lymphoid cells are positive for CD20 and CD10 and BCL6 and are
negative for MUM1. CD3 and CD5 highlight a small population of
admixed T cells. BCL2 diffusely stains both B-cells and T-cells.
CD21, CD23 and BCL1 are negative. By Ki-67 immunostaining, the
proliferation index approaches 100%. In-situ hybridization for
___ virus encoded RNA ___ ISH) is negative.
Epithelial
membrane stain is negative. Taken together, the findings are in
keeping with involvement by a high grade B cell lymphoma with a
germinal center (GC) phenotype. The morphologic features are
those of a diffuse large B cell lymphoma.
- ___: Cytogenetics: FISH: POSITIVE for IGH/BCL2, IGH/MYC
and
GAIN of BCL6. C/w Double Hit Lymphoma.
- ___: Admission for n/v. Likely ileus, treated
conservatively with resolution.
- ___: Initial outpatient evaluation by Dr. ___, NP. Recommendation for admission to begin da
EPOCH-R that day, but ___ refuses admission.
- ___: Staging PET reveals extensive FDG avid left
supraclavicular, bilateral axillary, mesenteric, portocaval,
retroperitoneal, and left inguinal adenopathy, as well as low
right pelvis FDG avidity possibly indicative of bowel
involvement
by lymphoma, and multiple foci of FDG avidity in the bones,
including the right iliac bone and the sternum.
- ___: Baseline TTE reveals an LVEF of 50-55%.
- ___: C1D1 da-EPOCH-R, dose level 1, uncapped vincristine.

- ___: Admitted for low back pain, neutropenic
fever,
and thrush. Right UENIs show resolution of thrombosis, and
therefore enoxaparin is discontinued.
- ___: Admitted with low back pain, found to have L2/L3
compression fracture.
- ___: PET for evaluation of back pain reveals continued
decrease in retroperitoneal and mesenteric lymphadenopathy, now
with low level FDG uptake, as well as similar appearance of a
large multiloculatic cystic and solic mass in the cul-de-sac,
with a focus of FDG-avidity at the posterior aspect
demonstrating
an SUVmax of 11.7.
- ___: MRI of the lumbar spine reveals a new mild L2 and
moderate L3 acute/subacute compression fractures, as well as a 6

Dr.
___ Interventional ___ it was decided not to pursue
biopsy of these lesions.
- ___: Surveillance PET reveals stable retroperitoneal and
mesenteric adenopathy without increased FDG-avidity, ___
1.
However, it also identifies new bilateral adnexal, oblong,
tubular-like cystic ametabolic structures, with lack of
FDG-avidity and shape making hydrosalpinx likely. Re-evaluation
with pelvic MRI is therefore recommended.

ACUTE ISSUES:
=======================
# Left Inguinal Pain:
She presented with 1 week of atraumatic left groin pain which
occasionally radiates down her left leg. She has been taking
Tylenol which reduces the pain to about a 2. She did have her
first period in 6 months about 2 weeks ago and so she initially
thought that it was endometrial pain. Her end-of-treatment PET
CT on ___ demonstrated marked improvement of disease in all
areas, but with persistent FDG-avidity in a multiloculated
cystic and solid pelvic mass. She
had a pelvic MRI on ___ which showed extensive deep
infiltrating\ endometriosis with overall increased fibrosis and
obliteration of the posterior cul-de-sac and tethering of the
bowel. She was seen by Gynecologic Oncology and ___ and was
decided to defer biopsy. She had repeat PET scan on ___
which showed stable retroperitoneal and mesenteric adenopathy
without increased
FDG-avidity, ___ 1. However, it also identified new
bilateral adnexal, oblong, tubular-like cystic ametabolic
structures, with lack of FDG-avidity and shape making
hydrosalpinx likely for which outpatient pelvic MRI was
scheduled. She subsequently presented to the ED with groin pain
as above and underwent pelvic MRI in the ED which was notable
for interval progression of deep infiltrating endometriosis with
increasing endometriomas, hematosalpinx, and new large left
hydrosalpinx measuring up to 11.7 cm and exerting mass effect on
the pelvic structures. OB/Gyn was consulted and felt that there
was no indication for acute intervention. Her pain remained
well-controlled on Tylenol. Plan was made for discharge home

Brief Hospital Course:
___ with PMHx of HTN, HL, CKD stage IV,and reportedly UGIB
(duodenal s/p resection) presents with bloody diarrhea likely
from LGIB (hemorrhoidal bleed vs AVM) and ___.
#Bloody diarrhea: The patient was admitted with abdominal pain
and four episodes of bright red diarrhea concerning for a lower
GI bleed. On admission, the patient was hemodynamically stable
and had a Hct (mid ___, unknown baseline) that was stable
throught the hospitalization. KUB was notable for mildly dilated
bowel loops but unremarkable for bowel perforation or
obstruction. The patient was guaiac negative. Given the
patient's vascular risk factors, ischemic colitis was initially
suspected. Lactate was 0.9. The patient was managed
conservatively with bowel rest, IV fluids, high dose PPI, and
pain medication. An abdominal CT was performed and no evidence
of bowel wall thickening or ischemic changes were apparent.
Given the patient's history of hemorrhoids, the patient's LGIB
was attributed to hemorrhoidal bleed or AVMs. The patient was
discharged with plans for followup with his outpatient
gastroenterologist for possible flexible
sigmoidoscopy/colonoscopy. At the time of discharge, the
patient's abdominal pain improved and had no repeat episodes of
bloody diarrhea.
# Acute kidney injury: On admission, the patient's Cr was 2.9
(baseline Cr 1.9-2.3). This was likely secondary to prerenal
azotemia in the setting of hypovolemia from poor PO intake and
diarrhea. During this hospitalization, the patient receieved a
total of 3 L NS. The patient' home irbesartan were held. At the
time of discharge, the patient's Cr was 1.7 and irbesartan
restarted.
#Chronic Conditions:
#Dyslipidemia: Patient has a hx of dyslipidemia but was not on a
statin at the time of admission. Lipid panel during this
hospitalization was notable for cholesterol:234 and LDL:149. A
statin was not started
# HTN: Was stable throughout hospitalization. The patient's home
irbesartan was for in the setting of ___.
# Asthma: Stable throughout hospitalization. The patient was
continued on home Flovent.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were admitted to the ___ because you had abdominal pain
and four episodes of bloody diarrhea. At the time of admission
your blood pressure and hematocrit levels were found to be
normal and stable making a heavy bleed unlikely. An xray of your
abdomen showed no bowel perforation but did show dilated bowel
loops consistent with slowed bowel movement called an ileus. A
CAT scan determined that you do not have any concerning problems
with your bowel.
You were treated with bowel rest, IV fluids, and pain
medication. Given your history of an ulcer, you were also
treated with a medication to reduce your stomach acid levels.
Your symptoms improved with this regimen. We think you bleeding
may have been due to abnormal blood vessels in your colon or
hemorrhoids, and you will be scheduled to see a
gastroenterologist within 14 days.
Please take your discharge medications as instructed. You are
scheduled for followup with your primary care physician and
gastroenterologist. Your gastroenterologist will determine
whether you will need to have a colonoscopy.
It was a pleasure taking care of you.

IMAGING
=======
CT A/P ___. Ascending colonic colitis. These findings are likely of
infectious or
inflammatory etiology, and less likely ischemic pathology. No
evidence of
perforation or definite terminal ileal involvement, though
assessment of the
terminal ileum is slightly limited due to underdistention.
2. Mild hepatic steatosis.
Brief Hospital Course:
ACTIVE ISSUES
# Abdominal pain/diarrhea: The patient presented with 4 days of
nausea, watery diarrhea with ___ BM/day, and 1 day abdominal
cramps. In terms of differential, gynecologic, gastrointestinal,
and genitourinary causes were considered. HCG negative.
GC/chlamydia negative. Pelvic exam was notable only for friable
cervix, likely related to withdrawal bleeding from being unable
to take much PO. CT of the abdomen and pelvis was only notable
for ascending colitis and mild hepatic steatosis. Taken
together, this made gynecologic causes as well as genitourinary
causes for her pain unlikely. In terms of gastrointestinal
causes, she denied any sick contacts. She noted that she had
eaten cafeteria food with friends for the few days PTA, none of
whom had fallen ill, arguing against food poisoning. Given her
recent amoxicillin course, C. diff colitis was considered, but
without fever, leukocytosis, or diarrhea while in the hospital,
this seemed unlikely. Viral gastroenteritis was therefore
thought to be the most likely diagnosis. An initial IBD flare
remained possible, and her age was appropriate for a first
flare; however, the rapid and severe onset of colitis argue
against this (less than 1% of first IBD flares are severe with
10 BM/day). During her stay, she was initially NPO and treated
with supportive care, including IVF, zofran, and oxycodone for
pain. Her diet was slowly advanced, which she tolerated without
increase in abdominal pain, vomiting, or diarrhea. She was
discharged home with instructions to follow-up with her PCP
___ ___ weeks.
CHRONIC ISSUES
None.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
- The patient mentioned that she had been told by a homeopathic
physician that she has ___'s thyroiditis. She has not ever
been treated for this. She denied any excessive sleep, cold
intolerance, weight gain, and said that the low thyroid function
test was in the setting of mononucleosis. However, existence of
other autoimmune disorder would make IBD more likely, so TSH was
checked and measured 2.5, within normal limits.
- Follow-up TSH level should be done as an outpatient, not in
the setting of an acute illness, to determine true level.

Bone marrow biopsy
History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ with no significant PMH who presents
with one day of intractable bilious vomiting, 6 days of
constipation, and a few weeks of bilateral 4 extremity weakness.
ACS is consulted for potential SBO versus ileus.
Three weeks ago, he had a few episodes of vomiting followed by
progressive muscle weakness in his arms and his legs. He states
that he had at least ___ episodes of vomiting over two days
which then stopped, and his weakness began at that time. He
presented most recently to the ED for this upper and lower
extremity weakness and was admitted to the Neurology service for
further workup.
He has been experiencing similar symptoms of weakness with
associated vomiting intermittently for the past year and a half.
Although there is no consistent temporal relationship between
the vomiting and the weakness (such as weakness followed by
vomiting or vice versa) the two symptoms do tend to occur within
days of each other. These symptoms typically last a few weeks at
a time,
and get better on their own. He is being extensively worked up
by the Neurology service for multiple diagnoses, including
porphyria and other neuromuscular disorders.
Upon evaluation, Mr. ___ endorses some epigastric pain
and nonstop vomiting beginning ___. He has not had a bowel
movement for 6 days, but he does endorse passing gas. He also
has weakness of his arms, worse distally than proximally, and
much more severe weakness of his lower extremities bilaterally.
He denies changes in his urine color, dysuria, urinary
retention,
headache, chills, fevers, chest pain, or SOB.

PET/CT
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of abnormal FDG uptake in the head, neck, thorax,
abdomen, and pelvis.
2. Bilateral mild to moderate hydroureteronephrosis is similar
to
the prior CT abdomen and pelvis from ___.
3. There is lack of tracer in the left ureter and the bladder,
which raises the possibility of obstruction.
4. Bilateral pleural effusions, right greater than left.
Renal Ultrasound
IMPRESSION:
1. Mild hydronephrosis bilaterally. The right extra renal pelvis
is minimally dilated and in the left kidney there is a simple
parapelvic cyst measuring 8.5 cm. Overall the appearance of the
kidneys is not significantly changed compared to the abdomen CT
of ___.
2. The bladder is collapsed on a Foley catheter.
MRI head with/without contrast:
There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, masses, mass effect,
midline shift or infarction. The ventricles and sulci are
normal in caliber and
configuration. There is no abnormal enhancement after contrast
administration.
IMPRESSION:
Brain atrophy. No acute infarcts mass effect or hydrocephalus.
No etiology identified for persistent lower extremity weakness .
MRI spine:
FINDINGS:
Exam is limited by patient motion. Contrast were images were
not obtained due to patient preference.
CERVICAL:
The cervical spine alignment is normal. Vertebral body and
intervertebral disc signal intensity appear normal. The spinal
cord appears normal in caliber and configuration. Multilevel
degenerative changes are not significantly changed compared with
MRI ___, resulting in up to mild canal narrowing and
mild to moderate neural foraminal narrowing at multiple levels.
No severe spinal canal narrowing.
THORACIC:
Alignment is normal. There is a Schmorl's node along the
superior endplate of T6. T1/T2 hyperintense lesions in the T3
and T10 vertebral bodies are consistent with a hemangiomas.
Vertebral body height and marrow signal is otherwise maintained.
There is loss of normal T2 disc signal at T4-T5, with a small
posterior disc bulge which results in mild spinal canal
narrowing. There is otherwise no evidence of significant spinal
canal or neural foraminal narrowing. The spinal cord appears
normal in caliber and configuration.
LUMBAR:
Alignment is normal. T1/T2 hyperintense lesions in the L2 and
L4 vertebral bodies are consistent with hemangiomas. Vertebral
body height and marrow signal is maintained. There is loss of
normal T2 disc signal at T12-L1, L2-L3, L3-L4, L4-L5, and
S5-S1.The spinal cord appears normal in caliber and
configuration. The conus terminates at the L1 level.
There is no significant spinal canal or neural foraminal
narrowing from T12-L1 to L2-L3.
At L3-L4, a small posterior disc bulge results in mild spinal
canal and
bilateral neural foraminal narrowing.
At L4-L5, a small posterior disc bulge results in mild spinal
canal and
bilateral neural foraminal narrowing.
At L5-S1, a posterior disc bulge and facet arthropathy results
in mild canal narrowing, moderate right and mild left neural
foraminal narrowing.
OTHER: There are trace bilateral pleural effusions. There is a
1.4 x 0.6 cm cystic lesion in the posterior left extrapleural
fat between the left seventh and eighth ribs, nonspecific
(13:37). Again seen is bilateral
hydroureteronephrosis, not significantly changed compared with
CT abdomen and pelvis on ___. Loculated fluid at the
GE junction adjacent to a hiatal hernia is similar to recent CT
chest and CT abdomen and pelvis, possibly postsurgical (13:37).
A subcutaneous cystic lesion in the posterior neck is unchanged
compared with prior MRI, likely a sebaceous cyst.
IMPRESSION:
1. Exam is somewhat limited by motion. Contrast images were not
obtained due to patient preference.
2. No severe spinal canal narrowing, evidence of cord
compression or
compression of the cauda equina nerve roots.
3. Multilevel degenerative changes as described.
4. Additional findings as above.
EMG ___:
==============
FINDINGS:
Note that the study was very technically challenging to perform
for a multitude of reasons.
Motor nerve conduction studies (NCSs) of the right median nerve
were normal.
Motor NCSs of the right ulnar nerve, recording abductor digiti
minimi (ADM), revealed mildly prolonged distal latency,
moderately reduced response amplitudes, normal conduction
velocity in the forearm and severely reduced conduction velocity
(with a drop of 24.7 m/s) across the elbow.
Motor NCSs of the right ulnar nerve, recording first dorsal
interosseous (FDI), revealed mildly prolonged distal latency,
normal distal response amplitude, and normal conduction
velocities. A possible ___ Anastomosis could not be
confirmed; partial conduction block in the forearm
cannot be excluded.
Motor responses of the right deep peroneal nerve were absent.
Motor NCSs of the right tibial nerve revealed normal distal
latency and markedly reduced response amplitudes.
Sensory NCS of the right median nerve revealed a moderately
reduced response amplitude and moderately slowed conduction
velocity.
Sensory NCS of the right ulnar nerve revealed a mildly reduced
response amplitude and moderately slowed conduction velocity.
Sensory response of the right sural nerve was absent.
Concentric needle electromyography (EMG) of selected muscles
representing the right C5-T1 myotomes was performed. In biceps
there was an admixture of short-duration, small-amplitude,
polyphasic and mildly long-duration, large-amplitude polyphasic
motor unit potentials. In deltoid, triceps, and flexor
carpi radialis there was moderate-severe ongoing denervation in
the forms of fibrillation potentials and positive sharp waves in
addition to an admixture of short-duration, small-amplitude,
polyphasic and mildly long-duration, large-amplitude polyphasic
motor unit potentials. There was mild chronic reinnervation of
first dorsal interosseous. Complex repetitive discharges
(CRDs) were noted in several proximal muscles.
Concentric needle EMG of selected muscles representing the right
L2-S1 myotomes was performed. There was mild chronic
reinnervation of tibialis anterior and medial gastrocnemius.
Detailed examination of voluntary motor unit potentials was not
possible in vastus lateralis, adductor longus, and
long head of biceps femoris due to limited activation and the
distance of visualized motor unit potentials; however, no
ongoing
denervation was noted.
Bone Marrow Biopsy:
===================
Cytogenetics
FISH: NEGATIVE MULTIPLE MYELOMA PANEL. No evidence of interphase
bone marrow plasma cells with gain of 1q, rearrangement of the
IGH gene, deletion 13q14, monosomy 13, deletion of the TP53 gene
or gain of chromosomes 5, 9 or 15. This study was performed
after
magnetic separationto enrich the concentration of plasma cells.
Core Biopsy:
============
NORMOCELLULAR BONE MARROW WITH MATURING TRILINEAGE HEMATOPOIESIS
By immunohistochemistry performed on the core biopsy, CD3 and
CD5
highlights scattered T-cells. CD20 highlights rare scattered
B-cells. CD138 highlights plasma cells scattered singly and in
small clusters, comprising ___ of the cellularity. Kappa and
lambda immunostaing shows increased background staining,
precluding the determination of clonality. However, concurrent
flow cytometry showed that plasma cells exhibit a polyclonal
pattern of light chain expression. A ___ red stain is
negative.
IMMUNOPHENOTYPING INTERPRETATION:
=================================
Non-specific T-cell predominant lymphoid profile; diagnostic
immunophenotypic features of involvement by leukemia/lymphoma or
a plasma cell dyscrasia are not seen in this specimen.
Correlation with clinical, morphologic (see separate pathology
report ___ and other ancillary findings is recommended.
Flow cytometry immunophenotyping may not detect all abnormal
populations due to topography, sampling or artifacts of sample
preparation.
Brief Hospital Course:
PATIENT SUMMARY:
================
This is a ___ year old male with PMH of HTN and alcohol abuse who
presented with acute worsening of weakness and paresthesias in
the setting of multiple episodes of nausea accompanied by
weakness and paresthesia.
ACUTE ISSUES:
=============
# Sensorimotor Polyneuropathy
Initial workup suggestive of acute intermittent porphyria,
however confirmatory testing was negative. The etiology of his
weakness remains unclear at the time of discharge though he
responded well to initial course of IVIG. He had a second course
of IVIG during the week of ___ (70 grams x 2 days). The time
course of his symptoms makes acute inflammatory demyelinating
polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP) unlikely and EMG was not fully
consistent with CIDP.
MRI brain, C/T/L spine, CT chest w/ contrast, skeletal survey
and PET/CT did not reveal structural etiology of his symptoms.
LP was preformed and CSF had slightly elevated protein (53) but
was otherwise bland.
From a nutritional perspective, copper was borderline low and
was repleted without resolution of symptoms. Heavy metal screen
was negative. Infectious workup including HIV, arbovirus, CMV,
EBV, hep B/C, RPR, coccoides, enterovirus and Tb was negative.
Whipple's PCR negative.
Malignancy work up including PET/CT, and paraneoplastic panel in
blood and CSF unrevealing. However, he had an elevated free and
lambda chain and persistent macrocytic anemia not explained by
vitamin deficiency. Bone marrow biopsy was negative for
leukemia, lymphoma and plasma cell dyscrasia and cytogenetic
multiple myeloma panel was negative. ___ red stain was also
negative.
On exam at the time of discharge to have diffuse, though
improved, weakness with distal > proximal weakness in his upper
extremities and proximal > distal weakness in his lower
extremities. He has notable atrophy of both small and large
muscles in upper and lower extremities indicative of some
chronicity. Reflexes in upper extremities are returning and his
strength is improving after IVIG.
Of note, he continued to have orthostasis related to
deconditioning and autonomic neuropathy. His antihypertensives
were thus decreased later in his hospitalization in order to
allow the patient to work with ___ without becoming symptomatic.
# Small Bowel Obstruction s/p Exploratory Laparotomy ___
His hospital course was complicated by SBO s/p ex lap revealing
small hernia. Small bowel was entrapped adhesions between the
redundant loop of sigmoid colon requiring ex lap and adhesion
removal. He will need follow up with both general surgery and
urology in the outpatient setting. Patient stooling normally at
time of discharge.
# ___
Patient developed ___ this admission due to acute interstitial
nephritis (possibly related to hemin which he received
empirically for porphyria) vs. contrast-induced nephropathy now
resolved.
# Fevers of Unknown Origin
# Leukocytosis
Of note, he also had intermittent low-grade fevers this
admission and a persistent leukocytosis. Infectious workup
revealed enterococcus and klebsiella pneumoniae and he received
ceftriaxone (14 day course of Ceftriaxone started ___ and
ampicillin (12 day course of ampicillin 500 mg IV Q6H started
___ this admission. He was afebrile and with normal WBC at the
time of discharge.
# Hydronephrosis
PET showed asymmetric uptake of tracer in the ureters concerning
for obstruction. Urology was consulted and recommended placing
foley. Foley subsequently removed and patient voiding on his own
at time of discharge without difficulty. Will follow up with
urology as an outpatient.
# Macrocytic Anemia
He had macrocytic anemia throughout this admission and Hgb
slowly down-trended to mid 7 range. No active signs of bleeding,
most likely secondary to phlebotomy. Vitamin levels are above
the lower limit of normal. Bone marrow biopsy was unremarkable.
___ iron labs showed anemia of chronic disease.
Hemolysis labs were negative. Reticulocyte count was 4.2. Will
continue ferrous sulfate 325 mg PO daily as outpatient.
# Hypertension
History of hypertension, but has not been on medications for
years. Please continue lisinopril 5 mg PO QD as outpatient.
# Alcohol Use Disorder
Case management consulted for alcohol cessation counseling. Will
continue thiamine, B12, multivitamin, folate, Mg as outpatient.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
# Patient diagnosed with enterococcus and klebsiella pneumoniae
urinary tract infections this admission; completed course of
ceftriaxone and ampicillin in the hospital. Please continue to
monitor for fevers in the outpatient setting.
# Patient with anemia this admission likely due to excessive
phlebotomy and anemia of chronic disease. Hgb 7.6 at time of
discharge. Continue to monitor anemia with repeat CBC on
___.
# Patient with pre-existing hypertension. He was started on
multiple anti-hypertensive medications this admission but these
were ultimately down-titrated in order to allow for patient to
work with ___ due to symptomatic orthostatic hypotension. Please
continue to monitor blood pressure and concern for orthostatic
hypotension. Consider further up-titration of anti-hypertensive
agents in the outpatient setting.
# Continue to monitor thyroid function. TSH and free T4 showed
subclinical hypothyroidism. Thyroid antibodies were negative.
Slightly elevated antiTPO antibodies, non specific.
# Patient had elevated PSA this admission 8.3. Continue to
monitor.
# Third course of IVIG (70 grams per day for 2 days) to be done
week of ___.
# Continue MVI, thiamine, folate, Mg replacement given history
of EtOH use disorder

Brief Hospital Course:
___ y/o M PMH significant for a sleep disorder who was seen in
___ on ___ for right elbow cellulitis treated with
keflex and bactrim who is being transferred from ___ for
as he has developed a thrombocytopenia and ___ concerning for
DRESS with elevated liver enzymes improving with steroids.
ACUTE ISSUES:
# Rash: Patient presented from outside hospital with facial
edema with ear edema, along with fevers and eosinophilia that
was suggestive of DRESS. It was suspected that it was likely
secondary to Bactrim he had taken for the treatment of
cellulitis. Dermatology was consulted and suggested high dose
steroid therapy with methylprednisolone. Patient was also
started on Clobetasol and Fexofenadine for relief of this
symptoms. His rash started to improve with the high dose steroid
therapy. Doses were increased due to the hepatitis he developed.
He was transitioned to PO prednisone and discharged with a 4
week taper and dermatology follow up. HIs rash was significantly
improved from admission. He was also started on antibiotic
prophylaxis against PCP, ___, calcium supplements and PPI
till his steroid dose is completed.
# Acute Kidney Injury: Presented to outside hospital with a Cr
of 1.42 and started to down trend and was improved on discharge
(0.7). Likely thought to be ___ to the drug reaction.
#Hepatitis: Patient presented with mild elevation of ALT on
admission. During his course these enzymes continued to up trend
peaking at ALT of 1084 and AST of 271. Hepatology was consulted
and it was thought that this transaminitis was secondary to
DRESS. Patient had a RUQ u/s that showed no liver or gallbladder
pathology and his viral hepatitis serologies were negative. His
methylpred dose was increased and the liver enzymes started to
down trend prior to discharge.
# Thrombocytopenia + Anemia: Thought to be due to aggressive
fluid hydration fork ___ vs drug reaction. Counts started to
improve with steroid therapy and returned to baseline at
discharge.
# R elbow cellulitis: Patient had been treated for cellulitis
and completed 7 day course. The affected area continued to heal
during hospital stay and he did not require further antibiotic
therapy.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
# Sleep Disorder- patient had a baseline sleep disorder but had
increased difficulty sleeping due to high dose steroids he was
continued on ativan, wellbutrin, and trazodone.
TRANSLATIONAL ISSUES:
- Continue steroid taper
- Check labs to trend liver enzymes
- continue antibiotic prophylaxis against PCP, ___,
calcium supplements and PPI till steroid dose is completed.

Exercise Stress:
his ___ year old man with h/o HTN and HLD was
referred to the lab for evaluation of dyspnea and pre-syncope.
The
patient exercised for 12 minutes of ___ protocol (~ 12.9
METS),
representing a good exercise tolerance. The test was stopped due
to
fatigue and hypertensive BP response to exercise. No chest,
neck, back,
or arm discomforts were reported by the patient throughout the
study.
No reported pre-syncopal type symptoms. In the presence of
baseline
prominent voltage, there were no significant ST segment changes
throughout the study. The rhythm was sinus with rare, isolated
APBs and
VPBs throughout the study. Baseline systolic hypertension with
an
exaggerated systolic blood pressure response to exercise.
Appropriate
heart rate response to exercise.
IMPRESSION: No anginal or pre-syncopal type symptoms. No
ischemic EKG
changes. Baseline systolic hypertension with an exaggerated
systolic BP
response to exercise.
Brief Hospital Course:
Active Issues:
#Exertional shortness of breath - Given its association with
presyncope and exertion, this was concerning for an anginal
equivalent. This was especially so in the context of an
indeterminate troponin of 0.02. He was risk stratified with
exercise stress test without signs of ischemia. He remained free
of symptoms during his hospital stay. He was continued on his
home lisinopril and aspirin on discharge.
#Rhabdomyolysis - His CK was noted to be elevated to 1190 on
admission and this value increased lightly on his next set of
labs. This was felt most likely from muscle breakdown from his
exertion. He was hydrated with 1 liter of NS and his CK was
trending down by the time of discharge. He was encouraged to
drink fluids.
#Acute kidney injury - Creatinine to 1.3 on admission, no
baseline in our system. This improved without intervention prior
to his ! L of fluid.
# Smoke exposure - Stable on room air without complaints of
dyspnea. Intermittent cough was improving through hospital stay.
Chronic Issues:
#GERD - He was continued on his home ranitidine.
Transitional Issues:
#Exertional symptoms - Would consider ECHO to further
characterize function. Stress test done during hospitalization
was exercise and EKG only.

Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___
___. You were admitted after developing shortness of
breath with exertion. You had an exercise stress test that did
not show any abnormalities. We recommend that you follow up with
your doctor for any further testing.
We also found that you had some damage to your muscles
(rhabdomyolysis), possibly due to the strenous work you were
doing prior to admission. We gave you IV fluids for this, with
improvement in your blood work. We recommend that you stay well
hydrated to limit any further muscle damage.
Regards,
___ MDs

History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ with a history of ventricular septal defect s/p
closure on ___ and chronic constipation who presents with a
weakness, dizziness and a reported pause on her heart monitor.
The patient was admitted ___ for planned VSD repair in the
setting of worsening right ventricle enlargement and pressures,
along with shortness of breath. Her course was notable for an
episode of pre-syncope on ___, attributed dehydration from
vomiting from severe constipation and reportedly improved with
IVF. She notably was found to have a junctional rhythm at that
time as well, and was discharged with ___ of Hearts Monitor
(___).
The patient shares that since discharge, she has continued to
feel generally unwell. She says she feels tired and finds that
she is short of breath after walking down a hallway (she used
the
___ 3 hallway as her example). She does not feel short of
breath
at rest and has no chest pain. She also has felt generally
nauseous. She was also having vomiting, but says her last
episode
of vomiting was ___. She has chronic constipation, with last
bowel movement two days ago. She has also felt warm, but has not
taken her temperature. She is unsure if she has had chills. She
presented back to the hospital today because her ___ monitor
showed a 3.5 second pause and she was instructed to come to the
emergency room.
In the ED, initial VS were: 99.0 73 140/74 16 100% RA. Labs were
notable for normal CBC, chemistries, troponin <0.01 and BNP 118.
EKG showed normal sinus rhythm with no notable interval
abnormalities. CXR was unrevealing. She was given Tylenol ___
mg,
aspirin 243 mg, 1L NS, metoclopramide 10 mg IV, Benadryl 25 mg
IV, Zofran 4 mg IV.
On arrival to the floor, gives the above history. She adds that
she also still has pain around her right groin site where the
entry of the procedure was. She says the swelling and bruising
has improved, but she still does have some pain. She adds the
pre-procedure she felt completely fine.

PERTINENT IMAGING:
==================
___ Cardiovascular ECHO
Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%).
There is a ventricular septal defect closure device across the
membranous septum with a small residual perimembranous
ventricular septal defect with left to right flow. Right
ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. Trace
aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are
structurally normal. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Mild
(1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic
pressure could not be determined. There is a trivial/physiologic
pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Ventricular septal defect closure device with small
residual perimembranous ventricular septal defect with left to
right flow. Grossly normal biventricular cavity size and
systolic function. Mild mitral regurgitation.
DISCHARGE LABS:
===============
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ with a history of ventricular septal defect s/p
closure on ___ and chronic constipation who presents with a
weakness, dizziness and a reported pause on her heart monitor.
#Pause
#Junctional rhythm:
Post-procedure patient was found to go in and out of a
junctional rhythm, which per notes was not necessarily
associated with when she felt her symptoms. She was given ___
monitor at discharge for closer monitoring, and on the day of
presentation she was noted to have a 3.5 second pause. Her
telemetry while in the hospital showed sinus bradycardia, but no
pauses. The patient's Diltiazem was held on admission. The
patient was walking comfortably without any symptoms on the day
of discharge and augmenting her heart rate appropriately. Given
her improvement of symptoms, her pause was likely secondary to
increased vagal tone during sleep with a possible contribution
from AV nodal blockade.
#Shortness of breath:
The patient was admitted with some shortness of breath which
resolved during her stay without intervention. The patient had
an echo to evaluate her VSD closure device which showed a normal
seated and normal functioning device without complications. He
shortness of breath could be secondary to some pressure changed
post procedurally, but given its quick improvement, no further
workup was pursued.
#Nausea: The patient had some nausea on the day of admission
which resolved.
#Constipation:
Held PO iron on admission and gave aggressive standing bowel
regimen. No clear iron deficiency on lab work so held PO iron
given that it was likely exacerbating underlying constipation.
Would consider IV iron if patient becomes iron deficient as an
outpatient.
#S/p VSD repair
Aside from junctional rhythm which was noted post operatively,
but not while inpatient, patient was well appearing without any
evidence of heart failure. Notably still withmurmur, though this
is to be expected given the device has not
yet had time to endothelialize. Echo showing well seated closure
device. Continued Plavix and aspirin daily
#Anemia: No clear history of Fe deficiency on chart review with
HgB from 11.2 to 9.9 since admission. No iron deficiency on lab
work (discussed above.) Some evidence of hemolysis given low
haptoglobin which is likely secondary to shearing across new
device.
CHRONIC/STABLE:
===============
#Migraines: Continued home Topamax QHS, sumatriptan if has a
migraine
#Raynaud's
- Continue plaquenil BID
- Holding diltiazem as above
#Chronic pain
#Fibromylagia
- Continue gabapentin QHS PRN, ordered as 100 mg (patient takes
100-300 mg PRN)
- Home PRN tramadol
#Insomnia
- Continue home trazodone PRN
#Vitamin D 5000 U daily
#MVI daily
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
[]Please get CBC at first follow up
[]PO iron held given constipation and no evidence of Fe
deficiency: Would get repeat iron studies with no PO iron
repletion to ensure not iron deficiency off of supplementation
[]If iron deficient, consider IV iron for repletion to avoid
constipation
[]Held patient's Diltiazem on discharge given possible
contribution to pauses on telemetry

History of Present Illness:
___ with asthma and pulmonary sarcoid on chronic steroids
(recent progression off steroids), PNA recently treated in ___, and reactive airways disease presenting with worsening
shortness of breath and cough. She noted that her breathing
became worse 2 days prior to admission but she noted improvement
using albuterol nebs at home. This was accompanied by a mild
non-productive cough. However, over the past day she had
significant worsening of her cough, which was still
non-productive. She denies any fevers, chills, sick contacts,
or recent travel.
She reported to the ED and upon arrival she was tachycardic in
the 150s with saturations >98% on room air. She was given back
to back duonebs, IV mag, IV solumedrol, 2L IVF. Her initial CXR
was concerning for PNA and she was started on CTX/Azithro. She
was not particularly wheezy and a D-Dimer was >500 so she
underwent CTA chest which was a limited study due to motion but
showed no motion artifacts down to the segmental level. There
was a right hilar infiltrate initially read as potentially
concerning for PNA. Given her significant tachcyardica and
tachypnea she was admitted to the ICU.

STUDIES/IMAGING:
CTA Chest ___:
CTA Chest:The examination is partially limited by respiratory
motion. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber without
dissection or intramural hematoma. The aortic arch vessels are
normal appearing. The pulmonary artery enhances without filling
defect centrally. There is no evidence of filling defects in the
lobar or segmental pulmonary arteries.
CHEST: There are numerous enlarged mediastinal, prevascular,
paratracheal, and hilar lymph nodes in keeping with sarcoidosis.
Lymphoid tissue has increased over time since the prior CTA,
particularly in the left perihilar region. This results in
attenuation of the ___ order airways of the right upper lobe,
which are normal in caliber peripherally. The esophagus follows
a normal course and is normal in caliber. Heart is normal in
size with no pericardial effusion. Limited views of the upper
abdomen demonstrate hypodensities in the liver which are
incompletely characterized. The lungs demonstrate heterogeneous
micronodules in a bronchovascular distribution in the right
upper and lower lobe. Scattered micronodules are new in the
lingula and left lower lobe. Irregular solid nodule at the right
lung apex (2:2) measures 14 x 12 mm, appearing slightly
different in morphology from ___. There is no pleural
effusion or pneumothorax.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: No focal lytic or sclerotic lesion
concerning for malignancy. Worsening sarcoid. Liver
hypodensities, not able to characterize,
IMPRESSION:
1. Limited examination secondary to respiratory motion, however
no evidence of central, lobar, or segmental pulmonary embolism.
2. Diffuse micronodules in a bronchovascular distribution,
worsened since the prior CTA of the chest, compatible with
worsening of known sarcoidosis.
3. Significant increase in perihilar lymphoid tissue, with
compression on the ___ order airways of the right upper lobe.
CXR ___:
FINDINGS: There is again bilateral hilar enlargement, compatible
with lymphadenopathy, which has worsened since the prior
radiograph, more so in the right. Increasing micronodular
opacities in the right upper and lower lung may represent
worsening sarcoid, less likely superimposed pneumonia.
Elevation of the right hemidiaphragm is unchanged. No large
pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Heart size is normal.
IMPRESSION:
1.Increased right perihilar micronodules may represent worsening
sarcoid, however infection is also a possibility.
2. Increased bilateral hilar prominence consistent with
lymphadenopathy.

History of Present Illness:
Ms ___ is an unmarried retired ___ yr old Caucasian

very well psychiatrically since her last course of outpatient
maintenance ECT at the ___, possibly as long as ___ yrs ago.
She had been active and without any major depressive or anxious

every ___ successfully, she started calling the clinic
much
more often due to various concerns. She tried a number of
medications including very-low-dose fluoxetine and quetiapine
for
outpt treatment though each one appeared to cause significant
side effects and so had to be stopped after just a few days.

do whatever it takes to put a stop to this episode as soon as
possible, including admission and possibly ECT trial.
Recently seen in BI ED by psychiatry on ___ for depression
and
irritability; she was not interested in higher level acute
treatment at that time and was discharged home to outpt
followup.

Brief Hospital Course:
#) Neuropsychiatric:
At the time of admission Ms ___ mental status was
characterized by both depressive and notable persistent anxious
features, as well as deficits in her cognitive status including
with executive function, calculation, and short-term memory.
MOCA taken at initial eval scored ___ with most deficits in
those areas but intact orientation, long-term memory, and
language. It was unknown how her status at that time compared to
her baseline exactly though we felt it likely that it had been
acutely but reversibly lowered by depression and anxiety as well
as medication effects (amitriptyline) and possible UTI. The TCA
was held at admission to alleviate possible adverse effects on
cognition and the UTI was treated with a full course of PO
Macrobid in-house (see below for further details).
With regard to the depression and anxiety, inpatient ECT had
been considered for this largely med-intolerant patient. Upon
review she clearly had a number of medical as well as social
risk factors for above-average difficulty with the procedure
including heart disease, likely underlying cognitive problems,
advanced age, vertebral and chest wall defects on CXR, limited
ability to adhere to outpatient treatment plans, and limited
support in the community for continuing such an invasive
procedure as an outpatient. She herself was also hesitant to
consider it except as a last resort. She also was unwilling to
remain in the hospital for an ECT course.
She had undergone a number of psychopharm med trials in recent
months but had complained of intolerability of all of them and
received no benefit. Shortly after admission she was trialed on
Remeron at 15 mg HS for aid with sleep, appetite, and anxiety as
well as low mood itself. She complained that it caused her
stomachaches and anxiety and was resistant to the idea that
these symptoms were unlikely caused by the med itself. The
mirtazepine's benefit for her sleep was mixed as she continued
to experience fragmented sleep cycles at night, and it was
discontinued after several days. It was replaced with Seroquel
at 25mg HS which likewise led to still mixed sleep quality at
night and vague complaints of thumping in her chest, perhaps
palpitations. It was likewise discontinued after 2 doses.
Sertraline was then started at 25 mg daily; she tolerated the
first 2 doses without any particular effects and it was
continued through discharge. It was felt that an SSRI at a small
dose, that could be increased as indicated through time would be
the safest and potentially best tolerated medication through
time.
At the time of discharge her levels of reported depression and
anxiety were mildly improved from admission. The low-level SI
(without intent or plan) she had endorsed at admission and early
in the course was no longer present. Her cognition was grossly
similar as well, with perseveration on similar issues such as
getting back to certain elements of her routine and her worries
about certain medication effects. MMSE close to the end of her
course revealed score of ___, again with deficits in the areas
above.
#) Medical:
UTI- Ms ___ had been thought to have a UTI at a prior ED
visit and was started on empiric abx though did not complete the
course. Repeat U/A at this eval was again suggestive of
infection and as she may have been suffering cognitive impact
from the process we complete an empiric course of Macrobid while
in-house.
Colitis- Throughout her hospital course Ms ___ was
complaining of constipation rather than loose stool.
Amitriptyline was initially held as above both for neurologic
reasons and the constipating effects. At the PCP's
recommendation we also discontinued Budesonide as she was not
having any active colitis symptoms. PRNs of Senna and Colace
with occasional Milk of Mag were used with good effect in
relieving constipation.
HTN- At admission Ms ___ was continued on her home atenolol
and lisinopril. The pt's BP fluctuated during her course,
generally elevated in the SBP 130-170 range and asymptomatic. No
acute interventions for this were performed during this
hospitalization.
Pernicious anemia- At initial testing Ms ___ and
serum folate/B12 levels were actually WNL. She was continued on
her home PO cyanocobalamin and additionally received an IM
injection of 1000 mcg B12 as she stated she was scheduled to do
monthly.
#) Legal:
___
#) Psychosocial:
Given the limited ability to manage her neuropsychiatric
symptoms pharmacologically we attempted to muster social support
for in the community as much as possible. Her niece ___ and
___ were kept in frequent communication and informed of
the need, in the short term, to escalate the level of
observation and assistance Ms ___ receives in order to
prevent rehospitalizations; they were amenable to involvement in
this way ongoing. The ___ RN care manager ___
___ was also involved as a point of contact and for treatment
planning at this time and to continue after discharge; this had
been attempted previously but with limited impact. Ms ___
expressed greater interest this time and arranged to meet Ms
___ first in the unit and then later in her home after
discharge to arrange services as required.
#) Risk assessment:
Ms ___ runs a number of static/chronic risk factors for
poor outcome psychiatrically, including mixed neurologic
co-morbidity, numerous chronic medical illnesses, limited
ability demonstrated to cooperate with outpatient treatment
attempts, and limited flexibility in managing her daily
structure. Acute risk factors which have been addressed and
ameliorated as possible include limited social supports and
transient passive suicidality. Protective factors include future
orientation to her activities of enjoyment, well-demonstrated
help-seeking behavior when needed, and lack of history of
injurious behavior towards self or others. She did not present
as an acute risk to herself at time of discharge, and the need
for family support and increased services at home was emphasized
with both the patient and her family. Increased strucutre and
support will be her most important modifiable factor through
time.

and volume overload on exam.
# HYPOXIA
#Acute on chronic diastolic heart failure
Initially had O2 requirement of ___, not on any home O2. Pt has
history of HF. BMP within normal limits, but she presented with
elevated JVP, pulmonary edema on CXR, and ___ edema suggestive of
fluid overload. Treated in ED for pneumonia, but
this was less likely given no cough or fever, and CXR more
consistent with pulmonary edema. She was given diuresis with IV
Lasix and oxygenation improved. She was restarted home torsemide
and remained stable with good oxygen saturation on
room air at discharge. For afterload reduction, patient was
initially on atenolol, but this was held in the setting of ___.
Metoprolol was started in the setting of SVT discussed below.
Thus, atenolol was stopped at discharge given baseline CKD.
Spironolactone was held given ___ and potassium ___ in the
setting of IV lasix. Could consider starting an ACE-inhibitor if
not already attempted as an outpatient. TTE revealed normal
bi-ventricular systolic function with normal EF (see above).
# S/p fall
No fractures on XR in ED, CT negative. Patient describes a
mechanical fall. Likely secondary to deconditioning and
weakness from worsening CHF. Other etiologies include infection
(leukocytosis) vs stroke, but these were less likely. The
patient was monitored on telemetry (SVT discussed below). ___ was
consulted and recommended rehab. Per patient's niece/hcp, has
been more weak at home over last several months.
# SVT
On ___, patient had runs of SVT (lasting seconds on tele) with
no symptoms, as well as several PACs. Unclear if has a history

OPERATIVE REPORT ___
Surgeon: ___, MD ___
PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Severe diffuse acquired
tracheobronchomalacia.
POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Severe diffuse acquired
tracheobronchomalacia.
PROCEDURE PERFORMED: Right thoracotomy and
tracheobronchoplasty with mesh, bronchoscopy with
bronchoalveolar lavage.
ASSISTANT: ___, MD
ANESTHESIA: General endotracheal.
INTRAVENOUS FLUIDS: 1500 mL.
URINE OUTPUT: 700
ESTIMATED BLOOD LOSS: 300.
INDICATIONS FOR PROCEDURE: Mr. ___ is a ___
gentleman with tracheomegaly and tracheobronchomalacia. He
has significant cough as his primary symptom. He had stents
placed which seemed to mitigate the cough somewhat but not
completely. The stents have been ___ many months and had
suffered fracture and infection. We recommended that these be
removed which he had done approximately one month prior. We
gave him just over three weeks to allow the airway to heal. A
followup bronchoscopy showed some chronic inflammation ___ the
airway and severe collapse.
The patient was turned into the right thoracotomy and prepped
and draped ___ the usual sterile fashion. He received general
anesthesia and then a modified 39 cut endobronchial tube was
placed. We then did a standard posterolateral thoracotomy
dividing the latissimus but sparing the serratus and shingling
the fifth rib posteriorly. We then dissected free the azygous
arch and doubly ligated with ___ silk. We then incised the
pleura on the back wall of the airway from the thoracic inlet
all the way down distally until we can dissect out the distal
left mainstem bronchus, the right-sided airways, and the
entirety of the thoracic trachea. We did our dissection from
cartilage edge to cartilage edge and took care not to venture
too far on the lateral wall of the airways so as not to create
ischemia. Once we had the airway cleaned off, we took
measurements. The airway was quite large with a proximal
tracheal diameter of 48 mm, distal trachea 45 mm, right
mainstem bronchus 33 mm, bronchus intermedius 23 mm, and left
mainstem bronchus 27 mm. We took a polypropylene mesh ___ the
shape of a Y, so that the proximal tracheal limb would
eventually be 23 mm, distal 22 mm, right mainstem bronchus 24
mm, bronchus intermedius 16 mm, and left mainstem bronchus 20
mm. We then began to suture the airway into place. Unlike
our usual customary rows of four because of the significant
airway width, we used rows of five across the distal trachea,
five across the mainstem, two membranous sutures ___ the middle
of the ventral triangle and then five across the left main
stem. The sutures were attempted to be placed ___ partial
thickness fashion. ___ the membranous all we used horizontal
mattress sutures to gather little bit more of the access when
we could. We then parachuted this mesh into place and tied
all the sutures and then worked from distal proximal on the
trachea. We spaced the rows on the airway about every 8-9 mm
apart and the rows on the mesh were closer to about 5 to 7 mm
apart so we can get a little bit of axial tension as well. We
noted that the cartilage was somewhat deformed so that it
bowed inward just past the lateral wall so we had to take care
not to create an omega shape to the airway with lateral
narrowing. We took the suture rows all the way up to the
thoracic inlet and then tucked about 0.5 cm mesh above that
level. We then did the right mainstem bronchus suturing all
the way to the distal bronchus intermedius. The right
mainstem was highly deformed and was difficult to actually
recreate an arch, but ultimately we were happy that we created
stability of that back wall there and then we did a similar
rows of sutures on the left mainstem bronchus with similar
challenges with the cartilage malformation. The mainstem
bronchus cartilage was actually nearly inverted ___ an upside
down U, so turning it back into standard arch was nearly
impossible. Never the less we thought we had achieved some AP
diameter which he had not had before. Once the suturing was
finished, we irrigated with bacitracin irrigation, placed a
___ drain. We closed the ribs back together with #2 fiber
wire and then re-tacked the serratus with 0-Vicryl and
reapproximated Latissimus with 0-Vicryl and closed with
subcutaneous tissue with ___ Vicryl and the skin with ___
Vicryl. At the completion of the operation, we did a
bronchoscopy, and we noted that his airways were highly
inflamed. We used several Aliquots of saline to lavage free
the airway secretions ___ the distal airways. He did have some
turbid and mucoid secretions especially ___ the left lower
lobe, but we were able to lavage this free. We did send an
Aliquot for culture.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ with hx of asthma, allergic rhinitis,
hypogammaglobulinemia (on IVIG), and severe
tracheobronchomalacia s/p tracheobronchoplasty 2 mo ago c/b
posterior wall ischemia and pseudomembrane formation, now
presenting with uncontrollable cough after his most recent
bronchoscopy on ___, with CXR and bronch ___ concerning for
infection. Tracheal biopsy showed invasive yeast/fungal hyphae
___ a background of necrotic tissue.
=============
ACUTE ISSUES:
=============
#Cough
#Leukocytosis
#Concern for invasive yeast
# Respiratory tract infection: As above concern for infection ___
Patient presented with acutely worsening cough after
bronchoscopy on ___ by the interventional pulmonary team. He
had productive cough at baseline; there was no change ___
purulence. Leukocytosis to ~12K at admission declining on abx,
6.6 by discharge. CXRs during his stay were unremarkable and
unchanged from baseline. A CT trachea on ___ was notable for
increased edema, increased stenosis (s/p balloon dilation on
bronch), and e/o aspiration which likely caused lower
respiratory infection/pneumonia. Given the patient's history of
Pseudomonas, slowly healing posterior tracheal membrane with
mesh ___ place, and frequent instrumentation, he was treated for
potential tracheitis ___ collaboration with the infectious
disease team. Of note, his tracheal tissue biopsy of ___ showed
invasive yeast/hyphae ___ necrotic tissue. Microbiology during
his stay was notable for bronchial lavage and biopsy
microbiology from ___ and ___ which showed commensal respiratory
___ albicans sensitive to fluconazole, and
Bacteroides. His blood cultures were consistently negative.
He was treated with antibiotics throughout stay vanc/zosyn (___)
--> vanc/cefepime/flagyl + voriconazole ___
levofloxacin/flagyl/voriconazole (___) for respiratory tract
infection
Regarding concern for invasive fungal forms seen on biopsy-
___ our discussions with microlab who reviewed slide- there are
few budding yeast ___ midst of necrotic debris. Per IP, biopsy
likely included some live tissue and there was bleeding with the
biopsy; hence the concern would be that there is live tissue
adjacent to the infected area that was biopsied. ___ addition, if
his suture line/mesh were to get infected on the posterior wall
of the trachea, it is thought that there would be no further
surgical options available. B-D-glucan and galactomannan results
are both negative, which is some reassurance against an invasive
fungal process. However, given high risk, ID and IP would still
favor a 6 week course of oral levofloxacin/flagyl/voriconazole
for at least 6 wks, with interval bronchoscopy to help determine
the total course.
His symptoms were managed with guaifenesin-codeine, tessalon
pearls, standing duonebs, and a flutter valve. Otherwise, there
was no evidence of URI or allergies throughout his stay. There
was concern for aspiration given CT findings and his coughing:
see below.
# Aspiration
CT showed evidence of aspiration. No clinical or CXR evidence of
aspiration PNA during his stay. The speech and language
pathology team evaluated him and recommended an NPO diet
initially due to concern over poor airway protection due to his
coughing. This was advanced on their recommendations during his
stay. At discharge he was on a regular diet.
# Hypogammaglobulinemia.
A chronic issue for the patient. He was receiving IVIG every 28
days for ___ yrs prior to admission, but had missed his dose ___
___. IVIG 25 gm was administered ___.
===============
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# Asthma/allergic rhinitis:
Per patient there was no increase ___ albuterol requirement prior
to admission and no recent allergies that could be a precipitant
of his cough. During his stay he was continued on his home
singulair and fluticasone. Standing duonebs were also
administered during his stay.
# HTN:
Home diltiazem was held given normotensive on admission; he was
discharged without diltiazem given interactions with
voriconazole (also note this is atypical choice of medication).
SBPs ___ 120-140s at discharge. Not replaced given allergies to
lisinopril, thiazides, and amlodipine which were documented but
patient unable to specify. ___ consider ___ or BB such as
carvedilol pending clarification of patient's lisinopril
allergy.
# Hyperlipidemia:
Home simvastatin was held given interaction with voriconazole.
Please note that atorvastatin also has interaction with
voriconazole.
# BPH:
Home finasteride was continued and his tamsulosin was held given
interaction with voriconazole. Terazosin (a home med) was
restarted instead. There was no urinary retention during his
stay. He was discharged on finasteride and terazosin.
# Depression:
Home citalopram was held during part of his stay given
interactions with voriconazole and levofloxacin; he was
discharged off citalopram.

Chief Complaint:
Left arm and leg jerking
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
MRI
History of Present Illness:
___ is an ___ year-old woman with history of R-MCA
stroke last year also hypertension, hyperlipidemia and other
chronic conditions (as below). She has never had a seizure
before, and no major Neurologic history besides the stroke last
year. For details regarding the stroke history, please see
detailed notes in ___ from ___ initail presentation and
evaluation by our ___ vascular Neurology team, as well as Dr.
___ clinic ___ notes, in ___ and
___ of this year.
The history of today's episode is a bit fragmented, with a bit
of
information from the patient (somnolent s/p Ativan in ED) from
her daughter (who was at work until arrival in ED just now) and
from ED physicians' reports. It seems that the patient was in
her
USOH, at home, when around 4pm she developed "twitching in my
hand." The twitching spread -- within minutes, per pt. -- to
involve the whole arm and then the leg. She cannot recall
whether
her face was twitching. She activated EMS, who had to break down
her door. She continued having Left arm and leg rhythmic jerking
movements on arrival to our ED, where she was reoprtedly lucid
with normal speech and language and A&Ox3 (per ED resident). The
rhythmic jerking movements of her Left foot/ankle were recorded
on a brief iphone video, which I reviewed. She was given 1mg IV
lorazepam, which reduced the jerking movements somewhat, and
then
an additional 1mg IV lorazepam, at which point the movements
stopped. A ___ was ordered. We were consulted to evaluate the
patient for seizure. I asked the ED physicians to hold off on
further medications or tests until I evaluated her.
She says she has never seized and never experienced any episodes
like this. She denies recent illness. Denies toxic or illicit
ingestion or any recent medication changes (although she seems
too somnolent/inattentive for reliability at this time).
Review of Systems: denies pain, recent illness; ROS is quite
limited due to somnolence.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mrs. ___ was admitted on ___ to the neurology floor.
She was initially started on keppra 750mg BID, which we
increased to 1000 mg the next day due to more episodes of left
sided twitching. We increased it again to 1250mg the following
day for the same reason. She had fewer episodes of twitching,
but they were not fully controlled. We therefore increased the
keppra on ___ to 1500mg BID.
Her mental status returned quickly to baseline, but she
continued to have left sided weakness, but it was unclear
whether it was the same as baseline. She however was unable to
walk as she used to at home, and therefore we obtained a Brain
MRI which did not show any new strokes or acute processes.
She had another twitching episode on ___ of unclear
duration, we therefore increased her keppra to 1500mg BID.
We placed her on LTM on ___, and it did not show any
seizures.
On admisison, we found she had a UTI on U/A and therefore
started her on bactrim. The culture showed mixed flora. We
repeated the U/A 5 days after starting the bactrim and it
continued to be strongly positive. We therefore switched her to
cefpodoxime (PO because we are planning for discharge).

Discharge Condition:
Discharge condition: good.
Mental status: oriented, intact language, slightly disarthric.
Ambulatory status: needs at least 2 person assist, remains

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
___ were admitted to the neurology service because of new onset
of seizures. Your seizures consisted of twitching of your left
arm. We believe this is due to your old stroke, which can
increase your risk of having this type of seizures. We started
___ on a seizure medication called Keppra (also called
Levetiracetam), and we have increased the dose until ___ had no
further seizures. ___ will continue to take 1500mg twice a day.
We obtained a brain MRI in order to make sure ___ do not have a
new stroke, and the MRI did not show any acute changes from your
last MRI.
We have made some changes to your blood pressure meds because
your heart rate has been low, and therefore we cut the
amlodipine in half (from 5 to 2.5mg), and stopped your
metoprolol. We have also decreased your lisinopril to 30mg daily
instead of 40mg as your blood pressure was also low.
We started ___ on an antibiotic because ___ had a urinary tract
infection. When we checked the urine agian 5 days later it was
still positive and this is why we changed the antibiotic to
cefpodoxime.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is an ___ year old woman s/p R MCA stroke who
presented with with perceived worsened weakness along left side
yesterday. While walking she noticed that she couldn't grip the
left arm onto a railing and walking was more difficult
especially with the left leg. About a half hour later she
started noticing the left arm twitching and spread to left leg.
She had preserved consciousness and the duration of the even was
quite long, persisting until arrival to the ___ ED, resolving
with 1mg ativan. She had another episode of clonic activity
following the first one which resolved with 1mg ativan and
keppra 1g load. She has had no
events since the night of admission. She continued to feel well.
On exam she
remained quadriparetic but with obvious hemiparesis on the left.
She had tactile neglect but is fully alert, awake, fluency,
comprehension intact. She is an able medical historian.
Concern during the admission was that her gait was notable for
one person assist, and without walker she doesn't have a secure
stance and is hesitant taking steps. She was seen by ___ who
recommended a short rehab stay for her. Her seizure was likely
in relation to the lowered dose and she is doing well on the
higher dose. She had an EEG while in the hospital which did not
show any events wore epileptic activity but the final report is
still pending.
She is compliant with medications and has no intercurrent
illness that seemed to be contributing. We have increased her
keppra back to 1500mg bid.

CTA HEAD ___:
IMPRESSION:
No significant abnormalities on CT of the head without contrast.
No
significant abnormalities on CT angiography of the head and
neck. Other
findings as described above.
MR HEAD ___:
FINDINGS:
There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, masses, mass effect,
midline shift or infarction findings consistent with minimal
chronic small vessel ischemic changes. Mild brain parenchymal
atrophy, most prominent at the sylvian fissures. Intracranial
vascular flow voids are preserved. Clear paranasal sinuses.
Trace opacification bilateral mastoids.
IMPRESSION: No acute findings
CXR ___:
IMPRESSION:
Compared to chest radiographs ___. Small
opacity at the lateral periphery of the left lower lobe is new
could be a small region of infection, infarction, or
atelectasis. Pleural effusions
are small if any. Upper lungs clear. Heart size normal. Right
central
venous infusion catheter ends in the region of the superior
cavoatrial
junction.
CTA CHEST ___:
FINDINGS:
HEART AND VASCULATURE: Slightly motion limited exam particularly
at the lung bases. Pulmonary vasculature is well opacified to
the segmental level without filling defect to indicate a
pulmonary embolus. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber
without evidence of dissection or intramural hematoma. The
heart, pericardium, and great vessels are within normal limits.
No pericardial effusion is seen.
AXILLA, HILA, AND MEDIASTINUM: No axillary, mediastinal, or
hilar
lymphadenopathy is present. No mediastinal mass. A posterior
paraesophageal lymph node that was previously enlarged now
measures 5 mm, within normal limits (04:50). Right chest wall
port device has leads terminating in the right atrium. PLEURAL
SPACES: Small left pleural effusion. No pneumothorax.
LUNGS/AIRWAYS: Mild compressive atelectasis at the left base.
Lungs are
otherwise clear without masses or areas of parenchymal
opacification. The
airways are patent to the level of the segmental bronchi
bilaterally.
BASE OF NECK: Thyroid gland is heterogeneous and enlarged on the
left side
hypoenhancing nodule measures up to 1.5 cm, not significant
changed from
prior. There is also calcifications in the left thyroid lobe.
ABDOMEN: Three hypodense lesions in the liver measuring up to
1.9 cm (4:112, 4:105, 4:101) are stable from prior exams and not
FDG avid on recent PET imaging.
BONES: No suspicious osseous abnormality is seen.? There is no
acute fracture.
IMPRESSION: No evidence of pulmonary embolism or acute aortic
abnormality. No evidence of septic emboli. Previously seen
enlarged posterior paraesophageal lymph node is now within
normal limits. Small left pleural effusion.
Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN: Ms. ___ is a ___ year-old female with
history of schizophrenia who presented with abdominal pain with
extensive lymphadenopathy on CT scan and biopsy confirming
diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, currently s/p 3C of R-CHOP
admitted with nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. She was noted for
new neurological findings ___ and +enterococcus UTI.
ACUTE ISSUES:
==============
#Confusion/Slurred speech: She was noted for acute onset slurred
speech and
confusion on ___, prompting a stat code stroke and neurology
consultation. CTA head and neck negative for infarct, hemorrhage
or masses. Cardiac enzymes negative, hgb A1C and lipid panel
WNL. Infectious work up consistent with enterococcus UTI (see
problem #2) which is most likely cause of this acute change in
her mental status. Other differential includes TIA, infection,
and/or medication related. Neurology team added that though her
imaging was unrevealing, she may have had a small infarct that
was not evident on imaging; therefore, they did recommend ASA
and she was discharged on this medication. ASA may need to be
held inter-cycle during her nadir. She has an appointment with
neurologist, Dr. ___, on ___.
#Enterococcus UTI:
#Fever/Neutrapenia:
Prior to admission, patient was noted to have low grade fevers.
In addition during her hospitalization, she was noted to be
borderline neutrapenic (since resolved). In the context of AMS
workup as above, she was found to have enterococcus UTI. Albeit
she did not have other UTI symptoms (dysuria, urgency,
frequency, hematuria), the changes in mental status could have
been a possible clinical manifestation.
Sensitive to ampicillin and non-neutropenic at the time of urine
culture results;
therefore, initiated on amoxicillin [___] first for
treatment but changed to vancomycin given nadir as well as
possible PNA that was reported on CXR. Follow up imaging with
CTA Chest did not show evidence of a pulmonary infection but she
continued on vancomycin [___] as she was neutrapenic
at this time and recently completed a 7D course for complicated
UTI on ___. Repeat urine culture on ___ showed no
growth. She currently has no mental status changes as well as
other UTI-related symptoms. Monitor outpatient for reoccurrence
of symptoms
#Nausea/Vomiting/Diarrhea (resolved):
#Emesis (resolved):
#Low grade fevers (resolved):
Suspect likely viral gastroenteritis. Overall, her symptoms have
resolved. Infectious workup was unrevealing except as noted
above. We did not send stool studies as she did not have any
episodes of diarrhea during her hospitalization. Continue
supportive care as needed with antiemetics. She is able to
maintain oral hydration adequately.
#Constipation: She now have stooled in the past two days. She
continues on bowel
regimen at discharge. She has no abdominal pain.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
================
#Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, germinal center phenotype: Goal
of treatment is cure with plan for 6 cycles of therapy. Plan for
restaging with count recovery after this cycle. Patient is s/p
3C of R-CHOP (C3 given outpatient ___ as well as
Neulasta on ___. At discharge (___), she is D+14 of her
regimen. She completed her prednisone in-house per CHOP regimen
on ___. She has an Echocardiogram and CT torso scheduled on
___ and then is due for her next cycle of R-CHOP (C4)
on ___. She was started on acyclovir for infectious
prophylaxis.
#History + PPD: Apparently was seen by PCP ~ ___ years ago at time
of transferring to ___. By report, patient did receive
the BCG vaccine but the response was increased more than
expected at that time. No symptoms of TB. Chest x-ray and chest
CT do not show any abnormalities. However, given diagnosis of
lymphoma and current treatment, she was initiated on INH and B6
for prevention of reactivation of latent TB.
#Schizophrenia/Agitation: Normally, she is well controlled on
current medications but
skipped dosing on ___ and ___ due to GI symptoms as above. She
has good understanding of her care and treatment. She was noted
to be agitated on ___ which was most likely

yesterday
for leg swelling. Her oncologist was consulted, felt likely
lymphedema, patient discharged home. Per ED staff, she returned

She
denied any F/C, no n/v, no abd pain, no dysuria, no increased
urinary frequency or incontinence.
I called her nurse from ___ this evening who knows the
patient well to obtain further collateral. She states pt had
increased edema recently but the reason they sent her in this am
to the ED was because she was "extremely sedated, unarousable"
"very difficult to arouse," and this was unusual for her. They
also noted she had urinary incontinence and this out of the norm
for her. Nurse also noted that over the past month pt had been
more withdrawn, "her hygiene is going downhill," "does not
answer
our questions," and noted she is always denying symptoms. Even
though she sees psychiatry, they feel she under-reports her
symptoms which may be interfering with her care. When she "is
very obviously nauseas, she denies nausea." She received her
lorazepam last night which she gets standing and no other
sedating meds. NO changes to her meds recently, including
clozapine 12.5 mg in am and 300 qhs and 0.5 ativan qhs. They did

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ woman with schizophrenia on clozapine, DLBCL
s/p C6D1 RCHOP ___ who presented with worsening fatigue and per
group home report found to be "unarousable," also with worsening
urinary incontinence. Found to have UTI with UCx growing
pan-sensitive klebsiella, was started on IV ceftriaxone, with
subsequently improved mental status. Was transitioned to PO
macrobid on discharge to complete a 7 day total course of
antibiotics.
ACUTE ISSUES
==================================
# Malaise/toxic metabolic encephalopathy
# UTI - Initially presented with worsening altered mental
status, with collateral from ___ home RN noting acute
episode of unresponsiveness prior to admission, also with
worsening urinary incontinence. Was found to have pan-sensitive
klebsiella UTI. AMS was likely multifactorial, with UTI, also
has a known propensity for lethargy/encephalopathic with
chemotherapy. There were also concerns with polypharmacy given
her home meds of ativan and clozapine. She was started on IV CTX
for empiric treatment of UTI with improvement of her mental
status back to baseline, discharged on macrobid for 7 day total
course to be completed on. Psychiatry was consulted and
recommended decreasing clozapine to only 300mg qhs, stopping her
home clozapine 12.5mg PO QAM, and decreasing ativan from 0.5 to
0.25mg QHS:PRN.
CHRONIC ISSUES

retroperitoneal adenopathy, now measuring 1.9 cm, previously 1.8
cm. No new adenopathy within the abdomen or pelvis. Echo showed
normal LV function with a EF of 60%. New Grade I diastolic
dysfunction. No other abnormality.
# Prolonged QTc - QTc on admission was prolonged on 498 msec and
so was kept on telemetry showed no events. A repeat QTc showed
QTc 456. Her home antiemetics were held in the setting of her
prolonged QTc, and per psych recommendations, her home clozapine
dose was decreased from 12.5mg in AM/300mg ___ to 300mg ___ only.
# Schizophrenia (c/b by catatonia) - She seems to be compensated
but pt's SNF nursing noted progressive withdrawn personality
over the past month with worse
hygiene, less eager to answer questions, but otherwise pleasant.
She is very reluctant to complain of any symptoms per nursing
report. Per above in consultation with psychiatry, morning
clozapine dose of 12.5mg was held and discontinued on discharege
and decreasing her nightly ativan to 0.25mg PRN insomnia. Repeat
clozapine level was pending at discharge, to be followed with
outpatient titration of home medications by outpatient
psychiatrist ___ with discharge appointment arranged
for ___.
# Latent TB - Continued on INH 300mg QD + b6

Brief Hospital Course:
___ is a ___ hx DLBCL s/p 6c RCHOP, schizophrenia
admitted with T11 compression fracture s/p kyphoplasty, with
hospital course c/b ___ edema.
# Acute T11 Compression Fracture: CTAP on admission with acute
compression fracture of T11. Neurologic exam was reassuring. F/U
MRI demonstrated no cord compression or signal. She underwent a
kyphoplasty on ___ and subsequently had improvement in her
back pain. She was treated with acetaminophen, lidocaine,
cyclobenzaprine, and oxycodone for her pain. She was cleared for
home discharge by ___. By day of discharge she was walking
independently, with well controlled pain, and with normal
neurologic exam. She was prescribed cyclobenzaprine 10 mg qhs,
and advised to take ibuprofen 600 mg opo q6 hours prn and
oxycodone 5 mg every 4 hours prn for breakthrough pain. By the
end of her hospital stay, she was only requiring oxycodone
2x/day. She was discharged with 20 tablets of oxycodone, and
advised to use them sparingly.
# B/L ___ Edema: Patient developed lower extremity edema in final
days of her hospital course. LENIS negative for DVT. She had no
PND or orthopnea. Last TTE in ___ with normal EF, no WMA,
normal valvular function, although PASP was borderline. Note
that her CTAP from admission had small bilateral pleural
effusions. She was started on furosemide with only mild
improvement in her ___ edema. She was discharged with a
furosemide prescription of 20 mg daily for the next 3 days,
although it appears that the most important intervention for her
edema is compression stockings or ACE bandages, and she agreed
to this only on discharge. PCP can consider repeat ECHO but she
does not appear to have other signs or symptoms of decompensated
heart failure.
# Facial Droop: Noted mid-hospitalization after change in RN/MD
staff. It was unclear if this was acute, as did not match prior
documented exams. Last known normal was outside intervention
window. NIHSS 1. CTA head and neck were unremarkable, as was
remainder of neurologic exam. Neurology consulted who
recommended routine follow-up and secondary prevention. Home
aspirin continued.

Chief Complaint:
Chest pain and shortness of breath
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
___ yo M with PMH of bilateral pulmonary embolism who presented
to OSH with chest pain and worsening SOB who was found to have
large pulmonary emboli. With respect to patient's previous
pulmonary embolism, he was treated with 6 months of
anticoagulation with Coumadin and workup for genetic component
were negative. Patient reports that 4 days prior to admission to
OSH he had worsneing shortness of breath and could no longer
climb the stairs to his second floor apartment and started
staying with his brother on the first floor. On day of
admission, the patient developed shortness of breath with
minimal exertion so he called EMS and was taken to an OSH. At
the OSH, patient's troponin was elevated to 0.12 and BNP was
also elevated. They were concerned for ACS and gave him Lovenox,
Plavis, and atorvastatin and transferred him to ___ for
cardiac catheterization.
In the ___ ED, initial vital signs were afebrile, 92, 120/77,
16, and 94% on 3 L. Patient reported current symptoms were
similar to his prior pulmonary embolism. Because of this he
underwent CTA chest which showed larged bilateral pulmonary
emboli. He was started on a heparin gtt and given morphine for
pain.
On arrival to the MICU, patient continued to complain of chest
pain and also noted mild abdominal pain with distension and
bloating. Patient also had thirst and dizziness on standing. In
the MICU, patient was continued on heparin gtt.

IMAGING
TTE (___): The left atrium is mildly dilated. The right atrium
is markedly dilated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular
hypertrophy with normal cavity size and regional/global systolic
function (LVEF=55%). The right ventricular free wall is
hypertrophied. The right ventricular cavity is moderately
dilated with moderate global free wall hypokinesis. There is
abnormal septal motion/position consistent with right
ventricular pressure/volume overload. The aortic valve leaflets
(3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and
no aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve
leaflets are structurally normal. No mitral regurgitation is
seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets fail to fully coapt. Severe
[4+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is severe pulmonary
artery systolic hypertension. [In the setting of at least
moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation, the estimated
pulmonary artery systolic pressure may be underestimated due to
a very high right atrial pressure.] The main pulmonary artery is
dilated. There is a small pericardial effusion. There are no
echocardiographic signs of tamponade.
IMPRESSION: Moderately dilated right ventricular cavity with
moderate global free wall hypokinesis and pressure/volume
overload. Severe pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. Small
pericardial effusion with no echocardiographic signs of
tamponade.
Compared to the study on ___, the right ventricle is more
dilated and hypokinetic with pronounced pressure/volume
overload. The degree of pulmonary artery systolic hypertension
and tricuspid regurgitation had signicantly worsened. A
pericardial effusion is now present. Global left ventricular
systolic function is slighly lower due to interventricular
interaction.
___ (___): No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in either leg.
Abdominal US (___): No ascites.
KUB (___): Nonspecific bowel gas pattern with no evidence of
obstruction or ileus.
CTA chest (___): Massive pulmonary embolism with embolism burden
greater on the right than the left with evidence of right heart
strain. New small pericardial effusion.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ yo M with PMH of bilateral pulmonary embolism here from OSH
with large bilateral pulmonary emboli.
ACTIVE ISSUES
# Pulmonary embolism: Patient previously had an unprovoked PE in
___ for which he underwent an extensive workup for genetic
causes of thromboembolic disease, all of which returned
negative. However, patient does endorse an extensive family
history of clotting so a genetic etiology is definitely
possible. Current PE also unprovoked. No recent history of
surgery, hospitalization, air travel, or prolonged
immobilization. Patient was started on heparin gtt in the ED
which was continued in the MICU. TTE with evidence of RV failure
and ___ without any evidence of DVT. Given clinical
stability, he was called out to the floor on HD#2. He was
started on Coumadin with a heparin bridge. Patient therapeutic
on Coumadin ___ for which heparin gtt was discontinued. Stable
INR on discharge. Per discussion with his outpatient
hematologist, patient should continue Coumadin with goal INR of
___ for next 6 months. After this, can consider
anticoagulation with rivaroxaban. He will need lifelong
anticoagulation.
# Right ventricular failure: TTE from ___ with RV hypokinesis,
severe TR, and pulmonary hypertension. Findings were consistent
with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Consider
referral to Cardiology if signs of CHF.
# Abdominal pain: Very benign history and exam. KUB and
abdominal US both unremarkable. Likely bloating and
constipation. Patient was given simethicone and bowel regimen
with complete resolution of symptoms.
CHRONIC ISSUES
# Hypertension: Held home metoprolol in the setting of PE.
Restarted on discharge.
# Depression: Currently stable. Continued home citalopram,
trazodone, and Seroquel.
# Chronic back pain: Continued home oxycodone, Tylenol,
gabapentin, and tizanidine.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
- Started on Coumadin 4 mg daily
- Started on bowel regimen
- Goal INR ___ per outpatient hematologist

dilatation, status post cholecystectomy, which is nonspecific
given lack of prior imaging.
___ Echo:
Conclusions
The left atrium is mildly dilated. No atrial septal defect is
seen by 2D or color Doppler. The estimated right atrial pressure
is ___ mmHg. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and
regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). Tissue
Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling
pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size and free
wall motion are normal. The diameters of aorta at the sinus,
ascending and arch levels are normal. The aortic valve leaflets
(3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No
aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are
mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. There is
borderline pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a
very small circumferential pericardial effusion without
echocardiographic evidence for hemodynamic compromise.
IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Small circumferential
pericardial effusion without evidence for hemodynamic
compromise. Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved
regional and global biventricular systolic function. Increased
PCWP.
___ foot xray: IMPRESSION: No acute bony injury. Medial
subluxation of the second toe in relation to the second
metatarsal heads bilaterally. Mild degenerative changes of
bilateral first MTP joints, left side worse than right.
___ MRCP: IMPRESSION: Minimal intra and extrahepatic bile duct
dilation is within the acceptable range post cholecystectomy. No
obstructing stone or mass lesion is identified. Known complex
pericardial effusion.
Brief Hospital Course:
Impression: Ms. ___ is a ___ lady with h/o seronegative
RA presenting with DOE and cough in the setting of recently
diagnosed pleural and pericardial effusions, most likely due to
viral process.
# Pericardial effusion: Outpatient CTA showed moderate-sized
pericardial effusion and patient presented with pleuritic,
positional chest discomfort suggestive of pericarditis. There
were no EKG changes c/w pericarditis and patient remained stable
with normal BP and pulsus. Echo showed a small pericardial
effusion without any tamponade physiology. Given the presence of
both a pericardial effusion and pleural effusion, rheumatology
was consulted for possibility of serositis complicating an
underlying rhematologic disorder. They did not believe her
symptoms were consistent with either RA or lupus. Diagnostic
tests were sent and pending at discharge, including ___, anti-Sm
Ab, anti-dsDNA Ab, RNP Ab, anti-CCP Ab, Ro & La. Patient treated
with aspirin 650mg TID and colchicine 0.6 BID and will continue
these for 2 weeks and 3 months respectively.
# Dyspnea: Outpatient CTA noted a small left-sided pleural
effusion and patient had persistent dyspnea for 3 weeks. She
completed a course of azithromycin and trial doxycycline and
augmentin and was started on levofloxacin in the ED. Antibiotics
were held and repeat CXR as well as bedside ultrasound did not
show any effusion. Dyspnea most likely multifactorial from body
habitus, pericardial effusion, and atelectasis.
# LFT abnormalities: Patient presented with mild transaminitis
with markedly elevated alkaline phosphatase and GGT on
admission. RUQ ultrasound showed mild central intrahepatic
biliary dilatation and thus, MRCP was performed. This study
showed minimal intra and extrahepatic bile duct dilation without
any obstructing stones or mass lesions. ALT/AST/ALP trending
down at discharge.
# Leukocytosis: Patient with increasing leukocytosis as
outpatient to peak of 17.2 and on admission was 13.1. Most
likely due to a viral process such as ___ virus, leading
to systemic inflammation and pericarditis. CRP also elevated to
250 and ferritin as high as 1100. Leukocytosis downtrending on
discharge to 11.
# Chronic Normocytic Anemia: HGB on admission noted to be 9.4 on
___ from prior baseline 10.7 as of ___ per ___ records. Iron
studies consistent with iron deficiency but patient refused iron
supplementation.
# Rheumatoid arthritis: Patient with history of seronegative RA
followed by ___ Rheumatologist ___. She was previously
on methotrexate which is being in the setting of PNA.
Rheumatologic evaluation recommended x-rays of the foot to
evaluate for bony erosions, but only showed mild degenerative
changes. Per our rheumatology colleagues, we would recommend
re-evaluation of the diagnosis of RA.
Transitional issues:
- pending labs: RO & LA, RNP Ab, anti-CCP Ab, ___, dsDNA,
anti-SM antibody
- MRCP final read pending at discharge
- patient discharged with ASA tid x2 weeks and colchicine BID x
3mo
- persistent thrombocytosis at discharge, patient will have labs
drawn on ___ after discharge
- patient refused iron supplementation despite iron deficiency
- please re-consider diagnosis of RA per rheumatology

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
It was a pleasure caring for you during your stay at ___. You
were admitted for an expedited workup of multiple issues,
including your shortness of breath, elevated ALP, and for fluid
around your heart. You underwent several diagnostic tests,
including a liver ultrasound, an MRI of your liver, an
echocardiogram, and x-rays of your foot. These showed that you
do not have any life-threatening conditions that we can
identify. You were also evaluated by our rheumatology team, who
did not believe your symptoms were related to your underlying
rheumatoid arthritis. We sent a number of studies that are
pending at discharge. Please follow-up with your PCP within the
next week to continue monitoring your symptoms.
Please continue to take your aspirin three times a day for 2
weeks and colchicine twice a day for 3 months to help with the
chest pain. Please have your labs drawn on ___ next week so
your PCP can closely monitor your progress.
We recommended iron supplementation to help with your anemia but
understand you do not wish to take it. Please re-consider this
decision as treating your anemia may make you feel better and
less tired.
It was a pleasure taking care of you.
Best wishes,
Your ___ Team

Pulmonary edema, pleural effusions, possible lower lung
pneumonia.
Echo= EF 40-45% down from 58% in ___ with moderate to severe
MR.
___:
Conclusions
The left atrium is mildly dilated. The estimated right atrial
pressure is ___ mmHg. There is moderate symmetric left
ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity size is
normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is moderately
depressed (LVEF= 35-40 %). Right ventricular chamber size and
free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are
mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic
regurgitation is seen. The effective regurgitant orifice is

(EF: 35%), severe MR, moderate TR, HTN, HLD, heavy tobacco use
who presents with shortness of breath and hypoxia concerning for
acute on chronic systolic heart failure exacerbation.
#ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE/HYPOXIA REQUIRING BIPAP
Ms. ___ was admitted for hypoxemia likely in the setting
of a heart failure exacerbation which elevated NT-BNP, hypoxia
and CXR showing pulmonary edema. She required BiPAP in the ED,
but improved with diuresis. She had troponin peak at 0.22 likely
in the setting of exacerbation, but EKG without acute ischemia.
Causes for HF exacerbation were not immediately clear though
possible ___ to PNA or AF with RVR. Given her severe MR, she is
likely an increased risk for acute pulmonary edema. She received
another dose of IV Lasix on the floor. Her respiratory status
improved significantly and she was weaned to room air. She had
___ which showed moderately depressed EF of 35-40% and severe
MR. ___ was placed on Lasix 10mg PO with maintenance of
euvolemia. She is also on Metoprolol and Atorvastatin. She is
not currently on an ACEi given her fluctuating renal function.
This should be addressed as an outpatient. On discharge, her
weight was 106.31 pounds and NT-BNP was 10,443 down from 34,176
on admission. She should follow up with cardiology at ___
#Pneumonia
Patient had finished course of CAP after admission to ___. On
admission, there was consideration of PNA given hypoxemia and
LLL infiltrate. She was started on Vanc/Cefepime. Given quick
clinical improvement, she was narrowed to Levaquin. She will
complete 7 day course (___).
#NSTEMI
Troponin 0.16 -> 0.22 --> 0.20. Most likely demand in the
setting of acute heart failure. The case was discussed with
cardiology. ___ did not any WMA abnormalities. She was restarted
on a low dose aspirin and continued on her beta-blocker and
statin.
#AFIB ON COUMADIN CHADS2 SCORE = 4
Her Coumadin was initially held. When her INR decreased to 2.8,
it was restarted. However, her INR subsequently rose to 3.5,
thus it was held. Her INR on discharge was 3.1. Her Coumadin
dosing per ___ records is 2.5mg ___ - ___, 3.25mg
on ___. She converted to SR and had HR in ___, thus
metoprolol was held. Her HR improved to ___, thus she was
restarted on metoprolol at 25mg Q6h and transitioned to 100mg XL
daily. Coumadin was restarted at lower dose of 1.5mg at
discharge. Please check INR on ___ and titrate
Coumadin as needed.
#ACUTE ON CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE
Cr = 1.6 at baseline per ___ records. Her Cr peaked at 2.1.
There seemed to be cardiorenal component as it improved with
diuresis. On discharge, her Cr was 1.8.
#Hypernatremia
She was hypernatremic to 152 likely iso diuresis. This improved
with D5W. Discharge Na was 143 and she was encouraged to have
more fluids and her intake was poor.
#Leukocytosis
WBC noted to be increased to 11.3 on discharge, perhaps due to
hemoconcentration. Patient remained afebrile and without
localizing source of infection. She should complete her
levofloxacin course for pneumonia as above. Please check CBC on

a dilated appendix. These findings were consistent with
appendicitis. You were taken to the operating room to have your
appendix removed. You are preparing for discharge home with the
following instructions:
You were admitted to the hospital with acute appendicitis. You
were taken to the operating room and had your appendix removed
laparoscopically. You tolerated the procedure well and are now
being discharged home with the following instructions:
Please follow up at the appointment in clinic listed below. We
also generally recommend that patients follow up with their
primary care provider after having surgery. We have scheduled an
appointment for you listed below.
ACTIVITY:
Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and
feel you could respond in an emergency.
You may climb stairs.
You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you
see your surgeon at your next visit.
Don't lift more than ___ lbs for ___ weeks. (This is about the
weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to
lifting children, but they may sit on your lap.
You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable.
You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a
time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you
can resume tub baths or swimming.
HOW YOU MAY FEEL:
You may feel weak or "washed out" a couple weeks. You might want
to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you.
You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your
throat during surgery.
You could have a poor appetite for a couple days. Food may seem
unappealing.
All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go
away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon.
YOUR INCISION:
Tomorrow you may shower and remove the gauzes over your
incisions. Under these dressings you have small plastic bandages
called steristrips. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks.
(These are the thin paper strips that might be on your
incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay.
Your incisions may be slightly red around the stitches. This is
normal.
You may gently wash away dried material around your incision.
Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area.
Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told
otherwise.
You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining
your dressing or clothes. If the staining is severe, please call
your surgeon.
You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may
resume tub baths or swimming.
YOUR BOWELS:
Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain
medicaitons. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as
Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of
magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these
medicines without a prescription.
If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving
the bowels, call your surgeon.
PAIN MANAGEMENT:
It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal
surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness".
Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is
getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon.
You will receive a prescription for pain medicine to take by
mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directed. Do not
take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more
medicine at one time than prescribed. Do not drink alcohol or
drive while taking narcotic pain medication.
Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your
pain gets too severe.
Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take
prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain
medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your
surgeon has said its okay.
If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of
pain medicine.
Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough
or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises.
If you experience any of the following, please contact your
surgeon:
- sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours
- pain that is getting worse over time
- pain accompanied by fever of more than 101
- a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain
MEDICATIONS:
Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as
you did before, unless you have been told differently.
If you have any questions about what medicine to take or not to
take, please call your surgeon.
DANGER SIGNS:
Please call your surgeon if you develop:
- worsening abdominal pain
- sharp or severe pain that lasts several hours
- temperature of 101 degrees or higher
- severe diarrhea
- vomiting
- redness around the incision that is spreading
- increased swelling around the incision

Primary Reason for Hospitalization:
===================================
Ms. ___ is a ___ woman with history of mild
dementia, HTN, diastolic dysfunction, and h/o syncopal episodes,
now presenting s/p unwitnessed fall with evidence of UTI on UA.
.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
==============
# Mechanical Fall:
Unwitnessed. She says the fall was mechanical due to losing hold
of her walker, but is unsure whether she lost consciousness. She
also does not recall whether she had preceding SOB, dizziness,
or chest pain. Trauma imaging including CT head/C-spine/torso
negative for acute injury. Notably she was admitted in ___nd UTI, with negative syncope workup at
that time. Per previous home health aide she had frequent falls
at home, and also had SOB/dizziness/fatigue at baseline. Also
she does have history of syncope s/p Reveal monitor,
?symptomatic bradycardia in ___, after which diltiazem was
discontinued. Her Reveal monitor has since then been removed
because battery was dead. Differential diagnosis includes
cardiogenic syncope, neurocardiogenic (including
vasovagal/reflex) syncope, seizure, delirium, and mechanical
fall. This appears most likely to be a multifactorial mechanical
fall, possibly precipitated by delirium superimposed on baseline
dementia given evidence of UTI on UA. Other contributors to
mechanical falls include baseline weakness and gait instability
per history from ___. EKG/TropT/CK-MB are nonsuggestive of ACS.
Progression of known valvular disease is possible given murmurs
on physical exam, but ECHO would be likely to result in little
therapeutic benefit. Orthostatics negative. Medication list
reviewed and with few medications that could contribute to
falls. ___ was consulted and recommended d/c with rehab for
intensive therapy to focus on strengthening and balance.
.
# UTI: Pansensitive E. coli. Denies urinary frequency or
dysuria, however UTI may be contributing to her mental status
and fall risk.
-- Completed 3 day course of antibiotics with ciprofloxacin
.
# Wheezing: History of COPD. Patient Oxygenating well on room
air.
-- Nebulizers PRN
-- Continued home fluticasone
.
# Acute on Chronic Renal Failure: Likely prerenal from diarrhea.
Valsartan was held and patient given IV fluids. Creatinine
improved towards baseline although not totally resolved before
discharge to rehab
- Held valsartan for now, resume PRN at rehab.
.
# Renal Mass: CT torso noted 15 mm hypdense lesion in the upper
pole of left kidney, which may represent a hyperdense cyst vs a
renal cell carcinoma.
-- Patient scheduled for outpatient MRI on ___ at 4:45PM at
___
-- Results to be transmitted to patient's PCP at ___ Dr. ___
___
.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# Chronic Diastolic Heart Failure: Stable. Currently no findings
of decompensated heart failure including crackles, JVD or
peripheral edema on exam.
-- Held valsartan due to ___
-- Continued ASA 325mg daily.
.
# Dementia: Stable. Patient generally oriented X 2, although she
intermittently forgot where she was.
-- Continued donepezil 10mg daily.
.
# Hypertension: Currently appears well controlled.
-- Held valsartan due to ___. Resume PRN at rehab.
.
# Hyperlipidemia: Stable.
-- Continued atorvastatin 10mg daily.

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with a past medical history
of UC who presented with abdominal cramping and pain.
His symptoms first started with the development of perirectal
pain the day after ___. He visited an urgent care where
the MD thought he saw an abscess. MD at urgent care was going to
attempt I+D but patient declined. He was started on augmentin at
the time. He was referred by his PCP to colorectal surgery
clinic, where no abscess was appreciated on exam. However, given
marked tenderness to palpation, they scheduled him for
outpatient
MRI. He describes the pain as excruciating pain that feels like
a
blowtorch. It is located along his lower back and upper
buttocks.
This pain has somewhat improved but is still presented. He took
the augmentin until ___.
However, around five days after starting the augmentin he
developed cramping right sided abdominal pain. He also had
frequent loose, sometimes bloody stools. He reports ___ bowel
movements a day. The pain felt like his typical UC flares but he
also had a severe, spasm-like pain that was new for him. He also
developed a fever to 101. For these reasons he reported to an
OSH
ED. He had a CT scan concerning for portal venous gas and was
referred to ___ for further surgical evaluation.
He takes entyvio which has been very helpful. He previously had
multiple flares a year, now only one or less. This is however
his
most severe flare. He had prior flares that required
hospitalization and IV steroids.
In the ED, he was seen by both colorectal surgery and ACS, who
felt that abdomen was benign. They did not feel there was any
need for acute surgical intervention.
Of note, he reports many (>100) episodes of nephrolithiasis. He
was told that stones were both calcium and uric acid.

MICRO:
___: Blood Cx x2: PND
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with gout and ulcerative colitis, recent hospitalization
from ___ for an ulcerative colitis flare, presenting with
1 day history of severe left wrist and ankle pain believed to be
a manifestation of tophacious gout precipitation.
ACUTE ISSUES:
#L WRIST PAIN:
#L ANKLE PAIN:
No bony or soft tissue abnormality on left wrist x-ray at ___
___. L wrist not amenable to arthocentesis. Exam suggestive
of extensor tenosynovitis. Presentation not felt to be
consistent with septic arthritis per multiple consulting
services. Differential included primarily gout vs IBD related
arthritis, despite recent steroid course. His was CRP 5.8
(downtrending from prior) with a ESR WNL. Seen by hand who
determined no acute need for surgical intervention. Seen by
rheumatology who felt this was likely a manifestation of diffuse
tophacious gout along his tendons in contrast to a crystal
precipitation in his joint. He was pain controlled with Dilaudid
during his stay which was tapered, and his pain improved
significantly by the day of discharge. His allopurinol was
increased to 400mg daily and started on lower dose colchicine
0.6mg daily. He obtained an MRI of his wrist/forearm which
demonstrated L extensor tenosynovitis w/o notable tophi (final
read not confirmed). Will follow-up with rheumatology.
#ULCERATIVE COLITIS:
s/p recent admission for flare, still on pred 40mg daily. Was
due to see GI on ___ for planning of pred taper and
determination of IBD status following bx. CRP/ESR reassuring. He
was continued on prednisone 40 mg PO/NG DAILY, mesalamine ___
2400 mg PO BID, and he receives Entyvio (vedolizumab) 300 mg
injection EVERY 8 WEEKS as outpatient. He noted continued
improvement in his symptoms, although he may experience some
worsening diarrhea due to starting colchicine.
#Vitamin D deficiency, PTH elevation: Likely primary vitamin D
deficiency with secondary PTH elevation, will need further
outpatient evaluation
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
#New medications:
-Colchicine 0.6 mg PO/NG DAILY
#Changed medications:
-Allopurinol ___ mg PO DAILY --> Allopurinol ___ mg PO/NG DAILY
[]Please go to your PCP ___
[]Please go to your rheumatology appointment
[]Recommend a uric acid level as an outpatient and titration of
colchicine.
[]Please take 100mg allopurinol in addition to your 300mg at
home to make a dose of 400mg daily
[]wbc was 15.7 and rising upon discharge. No s/s of infection.
Please recheck as an outpatient as it was likely ___ prednisone.
[]Please follow-up final MRI L forearm read
[]Please recheck vitamin D and PTH and consider vitamin D
repletion if remains low

Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___
___.
Why was I in the hospital?
- You were hospitalized because you had a sudden increase in
pain in your left arm and ankle following your recent discharge
for your ulcerative colitis.
What was done while I was in the hospital?
- You were examined by the orthopedic (bone) doctors who did
not find reasons to surgically operate.
- You were also seen by the rheumatologic specialists who
determined your new pains are likely from a different
manifestation of your chronic gout disease.
- Pictures were taken that showed you did not have any
concerning injuries as fractures in your arm and wrist, but were
consistent with the picture of gout.
- You were kept on your prednisone medications for the
ulcerative colitis and gout in addition to being started on
further gout suppressing medications and increasing the dosage
of medications aimed at helping to prevent a flare. Please stop
your colchicine if your diarrhea becomes unbearable.
What should I do when I go home?
- It is very important that you take your medications as
prescribed.

# Advanced dementia: Advanced baseline dementia, which likely
contributed to initial presentation. Acute alteration in MS on
admission, but improved to near-baseline with treatment of
issues as below. She has had some difficulty with calling out
and
occasional flares of agitation when perturbed, but recently has
been very pleasant and calm, likely due to supportive
environment and single room. Some waxing and waning over the

IMAGING STUDIES:
RUQ US ___ - Hepatopetal flow is seen within the left portal
vein, however flow within the main portal vein is not definitely
demonstrated due to limiations by poor penetration of liver. If
there is further concern for portal venous thrombosis, this
could be better assessed with contrast-enhanced CT.
CT ABD/PELVIS ___ - No evidence of intra- or extra-hepatic
biliary ductal dilatation or portal vein thrombosis. No CT
evidence of acute pancreatitis. Findings in the liver most
suggestive of cirrhosis with hepatic steatosis. Large left flank
herniation containing loop of the colon without evidence of
strangulation.
CXR ___ - No acute chest abnormality.
RENAL U/S ___ - No hydronephrosis. Small nonobstructing
stone in the right kidney and tiny peripheral crystal noted in
the left kidney.
LENIs ___ - Adequate compression of the deep veins within
the left lower extremity demonstrating no acute thrombus.
Evaluation of the right leg and color Doppler imaging could not
be completed as the patient declined further examination.
RUQUS ___ -
Technically very limited exam, limiting evaluation of the
abdominal structures. No large hepatic mass is identified.
Main portal vein is patent with hepatopetal flow.
CXR ___ -
As compared to the previous radiograph, the signs suggestive of
pulmonary edema have decreased. There is no evidence of focal
parenchymal opacities suggesting pneumonia. Borderline size of
the cardiac silhouette. No pleural effusions. No other lung
parenchymal abnormalities.
CT ABD/PELVIS/HIP ___ -
1. New left adductor longus hematoma. No active extravasation
detected.
2. Unchanged left lateral hernia involving the splenic flexure.
Trace
neighboring fluid is detected, tracking into the pelvis. There
are no advanced signs of bowel incarceration or strangulation.
Correlate with any focal tenderness.
REPEAT CT ABD/PELVIS/HIP ___ -
Left adductor brevis hematoma appears increased in size since
the
most recent prior examination allowing for differences in
technique with
fluid-fluid level noted measuring 9.2 x 11.2 x 8.4 cm.
CT ABD/PELVIS ___ non-con
IMPRESSION:
1. Small-bowel obstruction without a definite transition point.
Evaluation of the mucosa is limited by the lack of IV contrast,
however, there is no apparent bowel wall edema supporting a
mechanical etiology. Although, given the mesenteric edema,
ischemia should be considered but is deemed to be less likely
and correlation with lactate levels is recommended.
2. Cirrhosis with sequela of portal hypertension marked by
varices and
splenomegaly.
3. Splenic flexure hernia containing large bowel without
evidence of
obstruction.
4. No tapable ascites.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old homeless female with a h/o nephrolithiasis,
cirrhosis, alcohol abuse, COPD, and Hepatitis C who presented
with acute alcoholic hepatitis. Hospital course was complicated
by the development of hepatic encephalopathy, hepatic
coagulopathy, nephrolithiasis, infection of unknown origin,
spontaneous left adductor brevis hematoma formation, and rapidly
progressive renal failure.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
#Alcoholic Hepatitis: Initial imaging with RUQU S and CT abd
showed evidence of cirrhosis but no PVT, gallstones,
pancreatitis or dilated biliary tree. Infectious hepatitis labs
showed evidence of prior HBV infection without development of
immunity, and current HCV infection with a viral load of 4,000.
The patients clinical status gradually deteriorated throughout
her hospital stay with total bilirubin rising to 31, with MELD
>40. She was initially treated with adequate nutrition and
pentoxifylline (given acute renal failure on presentation), but
soon was transitioned to prednisone once renal failure improved
with albumin. She was treated with prednisone for a total of
six days, at which time it was discontinued due to a rising
leukocytosis, fever and presumed infection. She was treated
with broad spectrum antibiotics, but source of the infection
could not be identified. She developed a spontaneous left thigh
hematoma that was initially a potential source of
superinfection, however a superficial collection in the thigh
was drained without bacterial growth. She was treated
empirically for a skin/soft tissue infection for nearly 10 days
of ceftriaxone.
Unfortunately her liver failure continued to progress. She
concurrently developed rapidly progressive renal failure
starting the week of ___. Renal failure was either
secondary to contrast induced nephropathy from a CT scan of her
thigh, or secondary to development of hepatorenal syndrome. She
was followed by the hepatology and nephrology consulting teams.
She was treated with octreotide, midodrine and albumin, but
unfortunately neither her liver or kidneys responded.
Long discussions took place between the medicine team,
hepatologists, nephrologists and the patient and her family.
Palliative care was consulted. Ultimately given her poor
prognosis, the patient voiced her desire to switch care to
comfort care and not pursue dialysis. Her pain was treated with
pain medications and she was continued on lactulose to prevent
encephalopathy. She changed her code status to DNR/DNI during
these discussions, in keeping with her expressed wishes and her
family's views.
She became encephalopathic on ___. She has been continued
on lactulose and rifaximin to try to contain her encephalopathy
so that she can spend time with her family when transitioned to
hospice.
She is DNR/DNI and is transitioning to hospice care.

is
recommended to assess for stability and need for sampling.
PATHOLOGIC DIAGNOSIS:
Gallbladder, cholecystectomy:
Severe, focally transmural acute cholecystitis with necrosis and
fibrinopurulent serositis.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ is a ___ yo M who presented to outside hospital with
abdominal pain, nausea/vomiting found to have acute
cholecystitis on ultra sound. A CT scan was done and again
demonstrated acute cholecystitis with incidental finding of a
possible filling defect in the aorta concerning for the
possibility of intimal flap and/or thrombus. Therefore he was
transferred to ___. Vascular surgery was consulted and
recommended repeat CTA which showed no aortic dissection but a
focal linear intraluminal thrombus within the descending
thoracic aorta. Another incidental finding on CT was a 4 cm left
lobe thyroid nodule. Thyroid ultrasound was done which showed
the nodule to be a cyst. Recommended follow-up imaging in ___
months. Vascular surgery post operative recommendations were to
start xeralto once cleared from surgical perspective, start
statin therapy, and outpatient vascular follow up with Dr.
___.
The patient underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which went
well without complication (reader referred to the Operative Note
for details). After a brief, uneventful stay in the PACU, the
patient arrived on the floor tolerating sips, on IV fluids, and
oral analgesia with IV breakthrough for pain control. The
patient was hemodynamically stable.
Pain was well controlled. Diet was progressively advanced as
tolerated to a regular diet with good tolerability. The patient
voided without problem. During this hospitalization, the patient
ambulated early and frequently, was adherent with respiratory
toilet and incentive spirometry, and actively participated in
the plan of care. The patient received subcutaneous heparin and
venodyne boots were used during this stay.
.
At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile
with stable vital signs. The patient was tolerating a regular
diet, ambulating, voiding without assistance, and pain was well
controlled. The patient was discharged home without services.
The patient received discharge teaching and follow-up
instructions with understanding verbalized and agreement with
the discharge plan. Upon discharge he was started on xarelto and
a statin, and would follow-up with Vascular.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were admitted to the Acute Care Surgery Service on ___
with abdominal pain and found to have an infection in your
gallbladder. You were taken to the operating room and had it
removed laparoscopically. You are now doing better, tolerating a
regular diet, and ready to be discharged to home to continue
your recovery.
You had two incidental findings on your CT scan:
1.) A blood clot in your aorta. The Vascular surgery team saw
you for this and recommend taking a medication to thin your
blood (anticoagulation). This medication, Xarelto, is taken
twice a day. You have also been started on Atorvastatin, a
medication to lower cholesterol. Please follow-up in the
___ clinic with Dr ___ at the appointment listed
below.
2.) A thyroid nodule. The Endocrine surgery team saw you for
this and an ultrasound was obtained. They recommend following up
as an outpatient with Dr. ___ further monitoring.
Please note the following discharge instructions:
Please follow up in the Acute Care Surgery clinic at the
appointment listed below.
ACTIVITY:
o Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and
feel you could respond in an emergency.
o You may climb stairs.
o You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until
you see your surgeon at your next visit.
o Don't lift more than ___ lbs for 4 weeks. (This is about
the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies
to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap.
o You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable.
o You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a
time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you
can resume tub baths or swimming.
HOW YOU MAY FEEL:
o You may feel weak or "washed out" for a couple of weeks. You
might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you.
o You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your
throat during surgery.
o You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping.
You might feel somewhat depressed.
o You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem
unappealing.
o All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go
away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon.
YOUR INCISION:
o Tomorrow you may shower and remove the gauzes over your
incisions. Under these dressing you have small plastic bandages
called steri-strips. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks.
(These are the thin paper strips that might be on your
incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay).
o Your incisions may be slightly red around the stitches. This
is normal.
o You may gently wash away dried material around your incision.
o Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area.
o Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told

CXR:
FINDINGS:
Lungs are fully expanded and clear. No pleural abnormalities.
Heart size is
top-normal. Cardiomediastinal and hilar silhouettes are normal.
IMPRESSION:
No evidence of an acute cardiopulmonary abnormality.
Brief Hospital Course:
This is a ___ with systolic CHF, CAD, HTN, HL, DM on insulin,
CKD stage III with intermittent hyperkalemia, cirrhosis with
esophageal varices, hypovitaminosis D, anemia of chronic disease
with coexistent iron deficiency previously on iron infusions and
epo, gastric polyps with slow bleeding, who presents with
worsening anemia, referred from his ___ for blood
transfusion.
# Worsening of chronic mixed anemia (ACD and ___
# Lightheadedness on standing, consisistent with
# Symptomatic anemia:
The differential diagnosis for his anemia included acute blood
loss in the setting of GI bleeding (from gastric polyps or
potentially esophageal varices), slow GI blood loss from the
same sources, progression of underlying anemia in the setting of
not receiving IV iron or Epo. Hemolysis, sequestration are
unlikely given his history.
___ responded appropriately to 2 units and felt well with no
symptoms whatsoever. His labs were suggestive of ongoing iron
deficiency anemia. ___ had no evidence of acute GI bleeding.
His cirrhosis was compensated. ___ was due for screening EGD
which was considered inpatient. I reviewed this with ___, his
wife, and his primary gastroenterologist. We all agreed that
the patient may have this as an outpatient.
- PCP follow up for CBC check within 2 weeks
- Patient will likely require initiation again of iron
transfusions.
- Outpatient EGD with his gastroenterologist
# Cirrhosis with history of varices:
It appeared that ___ saw Dr. ___ Dr. ___ in clinic
relatively recently. ___ carries a diagnosis of presumed and ASH
cirrhosis
- Continued home medications including Lactulose HS, Propranolol
___
- ___ is compensated at this time
# HTN
# HL
# CAD
# Chronic systolic CHF: Appears euvolemic.
-Continued home medications including Losartan, ASA,
Simvastatin, Lasix
# CKD: Stable
- Monitor Cr and avoid nephrotoxins as able
# Hyperkalemia:
___ has received Kayexalate in the past though it is not clear
whether ___ takes this on a regular basis. His potassium on
admission was slightly higher at 5.6 then some of the other
values we have in our system. Normalized on discharge
# DM2 on insulin:
___ has had recent difficulty with hypoglycemia and saw a
provider at ___ for this on the day of his presentation. At
that visit they increased his insulin dosing slightly and
provided him with a new sliding scale, however his sliding scale
document in the ___ records is somewhat confusing regarding
his lunchtime sliding scale.
-Continue insulin while here. We will place him on a slightly
lower dose of long-acting insulin along with a more standard
hospital grade sliding scale and some mealtime bolus insulin. In
looking at his outpatient records this appears to be a rough
approximation of his usual regimen.
# Chronic constipation: Stable.
- Continue home bowel regimen

transfusion-dependent anemia disease, CAD, DM, HLD, HTN,
cirrhosis who presented with hypoglycemia.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
[] Insulin Regimen at Discharge: Tresiba 26 Units QAM. Prandial
Dose: dose of 4 units breakfast/ 6 units lunch/ 4 units dinner

mg/dL increase in FSBG.
[] Patient's home Lasix and Losartan were held on discharge due
to continued mildly elevated Cr. He should have labs within the
next week, and restart these medications if his kidney function
improves.
[] Consider switching patient's iron to every other day to try
to optimize absorption.
ACUTE/ACTIVE ISSUES:
====================
#. Hypoglycemia
#. IDDM
Presented with unresponsiveness in the setting of a blood sugar
of 33 at home, which improved with D50 and D5 in the ED. Suspect
the etiology of his hypoglycemia was likely over-aggressive
insulin regimen in the setting of poor PO intake. There was some
suspicion patient accidentally injected himself with an
incorrect amount of insulin, but after discussion with his
family, they did not appear concerned about this. Other
potential contributing factors to his hypoglycemia include ___
on admission which could cause his long-acting insulin to
accumulate. Additionally in the setting of his cirrhosis he is
more prone to hypoglycemia. He is on propranolol for primary
prophylaxis in the setting of varices which could have blunted
symptoms of hypoglycemia leading to the profound hypoglycemia
and resulting coma. ___ was consulted, and adjusted his
regimen to help prevent further hypoglycemia. We educated the
patient and his family that from a safety perspective
mild/moderate hyperglycemia is much safer, and thus would be
preferred, over hypoglycemia.
[] Insulin Regimen at Discharge: Tresiba 26 Units QAM. Prandial
Dose: dose of 4 units breakfast/ 6 units lunch/ 4 units dinner
for 101-200 range. Thereafter, 2 units increase for every 50
mg/dL.
#. ___ on CKD
Baseline creatinine 1.5, increased to 2.1 on admission. Suspect
___ to poor PO intake I/s/o altered mental status from
hypoglycemia, along with diuretic use and anemia. Improved
following IVF and transfusion. Lasix and losartan were held in
setting of his acute kidney injury. Cr 1.7 on discharge.
[] Patient's home Lasix and Losartan were held during
hospitalization and on discharge due to continued ___. He should
have labs within the next week, and restart these medications if
his kidney function improves.
#. Left foot pain
Patient endorses mechanical fall and twisting of left ankle.
X-ray in the ED without fracture. Treated with Tylenol.
#. Toxic Metabolic Encephalopathy
Patient was unresponsive at home in the setting of his
hypoglycemia. Since correction of his glucose his mental status
has returned to baseline per the family. He also has no focal
deficits on exam. NCHCT was negative for acute intracranial
process. No asterixis on exam making HE less likely. Remained at
baseline through rest of hospitalization.
#. Paranasal Sinusitis
Noted incidentally on imaging. Patient without clinic findings
or symptoms. Low suspicion for acute infection/fungal invasion.
Started on saline nasal spray.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
#. ___ Cirrhosis
MELD score 15. Child ___ A. Was continued on home medications
without evidence of acute decompensation.
#. Anemia
Thought most likely secondary to CKD and anemia of chronic
disease per outpatient records. Requires intermittent
transfusions, most recently getting 2 units in ___, also gets
procrit 150,000 units per week I/s/o anemia of chronic.
Transfused total of 2 units while inpatient for low Hgb. 1 unit
pRBCs on ___ for Hgb 6.2, and 1 unit pRBCs on ___
(pre-transfusion Hgb was 7.2).
#. Eosinophila
Has a history of eosinophilia dating back to ___. Stable on
labs.
#. HFmrEF (LVEF = 47 %)
#. CAD
Euvolemic to dry on exam. Held home Lasix, losartan, and
propranolol, as above.
[] Plan to resume home lasix in coming days.
#. HTN
Held losartan due to ___ on admission. Was mildly hypertensive
on day of discharge, so expect that as long as his serum Cr
returns to baseline, OK to resume home losartan in the coming
days.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is an ___ with h/o CKD, DMII, HTN, HLD, CAD who
presents with an episode of presyncope on day of admission.
# Presyncope: Given pt's reported BP 84/48 and feeling
lightheaded during the event, most likely due to hypotension
caused by vasodilation induced by sun exposure while outside.
However, given his presentation and significant risk factors for
cardiovascular disease including DM, HTN, HLD, CAD, a
cardiogenic etiology (ACS, CHF, arrhythmia) as well as
neurological (CVA, seizure) were considered. Initial
differential included meds (though stable vitals on home
medications) vs infection (though CXR, UA and Blood cultures
without clear evidence of infection) vs. cardiac. Cardiac
etiology was concerning given abnormal EKG suggestive of prior
inferior MI but no acute ischemic changes and troponin x2
negative. No evidence of arrhythmia on telemetry. TTE with no
structural cardiac cause of syncope. Given negative workup, most
likely cause was syncope was vasovagal. Should episode occur
again would recommend Holter monitoring.
# Black stools: Pt was admitted for GI w/u in the setting of
presyncope and rectal exam with black stools and guaiac
positive. However, ___ and per pt, he's had black stools ___
years now since he's been taking iron supplements. He has
history of anemia of chronic disease per PCP note in ___ and H&H
has been stable x2 months.
# CAD: History is unknown as pt's cardiologist is at ___.
However, EKG is evident of inferior MI. He has multiple risk
factors for CAD. On aspirin, metoprolol 200mg XL, losartan 50mg,
simvastin 80mg daily. These were continued during
hospitalization.
# DMII: well controlled as most recent A1C in ___ was 6.2.
On Lantus and Januvia.
# CKD: Cr is at baseline. Most likely d/t hypertension and DMII.
# Chronic Eosinophilia: Found to have positive high
strongyloides antibody in ___. Treated with Ivermectin with
improvement
TRANSITIONAL:
==================
- Followup with ___ Cardiologist.
- Would recommend colonoscopy as no prior studies in our system.
- Patient should followup with PCP, ___ recommend checking CBC
and renal function at followup.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure meeting you and taking care of you. You were
admitted for dizziness and lightheadedness after being outside
in the sun. We were concerned this was caused by a vaso-vagal
episode where you blood pressure temporarily drops and you lose
consciousness. We were also concerned that this could have been
caused by an infection or heart problem but there was no
evidence of any acute infection. We monitored your heart rhythm
on telemetry and got an ultrasound of your heart which showed no
structural cardiac cause of syncope. Finally we obtained a CT
scan of your head which showed no acute intracranial issues. We
recommend that you followup with your PCP and cardiologist.
We wish you the best,
Your ___ team.

REPORTS:
ECHO ___: The left atrial volume is mildly increased. The right
atrium is moderately dilated. There is mild symmetric left
ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and
regional/global systolic function (LVEF>55%). Right ventricular
chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve
leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not
present. Mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral
valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve
prolapse. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. [Due to
acoustic shadowing, the severity of mitral regurgitation may be
significantly UNDERestimated.] There is moderate pulmonary
artery systolic hypertension.
IMPRESSION: Symmetric LVH with normal global and regional
biventricular systolic function. Mild aortic regurgitation. Mild
mitral regurgitation. Moderate pulmonary hypertension.
CXR ___:
The lung volumes are normal. Moderate scoliosis causes slight
asymmetry of the rib cage. Tortuous thoracic aorta. Borderline
size of the
cardiac silhouette without pulmonary edema and pneumonia.
Calcified valvular
annulus projecting over the cardiac silhouette.
CXR ___: No evidence of acute heart failure or volume overload.
Bilat Lower Extremity Ultrasound ___:
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of deep vein thrombosis in the bilateral
proximal lower
extremities.
2. Significant soft tissue edema within the distal lower
extremities
precluding evaluation of the perineal and posterior tibial
veins.
Brief Hospital Course:
This is an ___ year old female with PVD, HLD, vison impairment
who presented with a one month history of bilateral lower
extremity redness and swelling.
ACTIVE MEDICAL ISSUES
#BILATERAL LEG SWELLING: Patient presented with a one month
history of bilateral leg swelling and redness, up to her knees.
In the ED LENIs study ruled out DVT's, and patient was given one
dose of nafcillin and vancomycin for possible cellulitis.
However, on clinical exam this appeared not to be cellulitic and
rather likely secondary to acute on chronic venous stasis
dermatitis, and possibly also secondary to heart failure. On the
floor, patient slept with legs elevated above the level of the
heart, wore ACE compression bandages, and used topical
triamcinilone and emollient therapy as barrier protection. She
had workup and treatment for CHF as below. By discharge leg pain
and swelling had significantly improved.
#CHF: Given peripheral lower extremity edema and chronic venous
insufficiency, it is likely that the patient has some degree of
diastolic heart failure. She has an outpatient cardiologist, Dr.
___ in ___, but she has not seen him since ___. Here workup
was done for heart failure that included elevated BNP (___) and
Echo that showed normal ejection fraction but moderate pulmonary
hypertension and dilated right and left atria. It is possible
that she has diastolic heart failure with a normal ejection
fraction. Chest X ray on admission showed ___ B lines
suggesting volume overload, so patient was started on IV Lasix
for diuresis. O2 sats improved and follow up chest X ray showed
no signs volume overload. Her weight decreased four kilograms
from admission to discharge, as she was likely fluid overloaded
when she came in. Discharge weight 66kg. Patient worked with
___ and desaturated to 90 on ambulation. This was felt to be most
likely due to her known COPD and she had a history of refusing
home O2 for this in the past. She unfortunately refused home
oxygen despite the risk of worsening lung disease and other
serious consequences. We arranged close follow up with her PCP
and outpatient cardiologist.
#CKD vs ___: The patient had no documentation of previous values
of creatinine until ___. Creatinine at admission was 2.0
compared to baseline creatinine 1.5. This was likely in the
setting of dehydration vs poor forward flow from CHF. FeNa was
4% making prerenal less likely, however this was in setting of
diuretics which could mask prerenal. FeUrea was 3.8%. All
medications were renally dosed, and her lisinopril was held.
Creatinine remained stable at 2.0 during this hospital stay.
CHRONIC MEDICAL ISSUES
#Atrial flutter: No acute issues this hospitalization. Patient
had documented previous atrial flutter and has a CHADS 2 score
of at least 2 (given her age and history of hypertension). Per
outpatient cardiology notes, she is not anticoagulated given
fall risk due to decreased vision. She is on aspirin 81mg daily
and diltiazem 180 for rate control. Patient was continued on
home medications with no acute events.
#HYPERLIPIDEMIA: No acute issues this hospitalization. Patient
was continued on home dose simvastatin 20mg once daily.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
[]consider PFTs as outpatient
[]consider increasing lasix if worsening of leg swelling
[]please ensure patient elevates legs above level of heart three
times a day
[]consider discussion of home O2 with patient as she was not
keen on this as inpatient
[]discharge weight 66kg (admission weight 72.6kg)

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms ___,
It was a pleasure having you here at the ___
___. You were admitted here with bilateral leg
swelling and tightness. You had an ultrasound of both your legs
done to rule out any clots in your leg. Your leg swelling was
thought to be from poor circulation in the veins and poor
function of your heart. Your leg swelling improved after you
raised your legs above the level of your heart and had them
bandaged up. You also received intravenous doses of your water
pill (Lasix) which helped you get rid of some of the excess
water accumulated in your legs. Please keep your follow up
appointments below.
We wish you the very best,
Your ___ medical team

Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old female with PVD, HLD, HTN, and HFPEF, vison
impairment who presents with a one month history of bilateral ___
redness, and swelling for the past few months.
Active Issues:
# Bilateral lower extremity edema, erythema, and pain: Unlikely
cellulitis given that it is bilateral, symmetric and well
demarcated and no evidence of purulent drainage. Per Dermatology
consult, her skin findings are likely "venous stasis dermatitis
with early lipodermatosclerosis. She also has mild tinea pedis
with evidence of onychomycosis. The redness and scaly plaques
can be attributed to her stasis dermatitis and not a cellulitis.
Pain can be attributed to lipodermatosclerosis. We would like to
treat her tinea pedis as to prevent cellulitis. Stasis
dermatitis and lipodermatosclerosis are chronic and
progressive conditions that need continued care. We thus agree
that the patient receive additional assistance at home." They
recommended compression daily, fluocinonide BID to affected
areas x 2 weeks/month max, emollients such as vaseline or
hydralatum, leg elevation whenever possible. For pain they
recommended topical capsaicin cream three to four times daily
for
pain relief. The patient will follow up in ___ clinic,
where she can get qweekly UNA boots placed and where they can
continue to help with mgmt of topical medications.
# Tinea pedis: Dermatology recommended econazole QD to the feet
to treat fungal infection and to prevent nidus of bacterial
entry for cellulitis.
# Acute on chronic renal failure: Patient has a baseline Cr of
~2. She received IV lasix on arrival. Admission weight was 64 kg
from last discharge weight of 66 kg. Cr then rose to ~3, likely
prerenal. She received gentle IV fluids and was encouraged to
hydrate. On discharge Cr was 1.8, at baseline. Additionally,
given CKD, the patient was started on a low potassium (2gm per
day) diet. Home lisinopril and lasix were held initially, and
upon discharge, lasix 40mg daily was restarted but home
lisinopril was stopped. PCP can decide if/when to restart home
lisinopril.
# Left eye conjunctivitis: Patient had redness and crusting in
her left eye, so was started on erythromycin eye drops QID x 5
days. Last day will be ___.
# Dispo planning: Patient has multiple active meds on file but
states she only takes 4 meds - aspirin, statin, lasix, and one
other med she does not remember. She is blind in right eye and
has reduced functional ability. Physical therapy and
Occupational therapy evaluated the patient and recommended rehab
since the patient could not independently transfer/walk and
cannot self-care.
# Urinary retention: After patient had received oxycodone for 2
days, she had urinary retention and was straight cathed for
750cc urine. Oxycodone was stopped since leg pain improved with
better topical care, and patient's urinary retention resolved.
Chronic Issues:
# Heart failure with preserved EF: Recent ECHO showed normal
ejection fraction of 55%, moderate pulmonary hypertension and
dilated right and left atria. Has been seen by cardiology in the
past and has had an elevated BNP. CXR without evidence of volume
overload and patient did not have exam findings of fluid
overload. On discharge, the patient was on half of home lasix
dose and lisinopril was stopped given ___. It can be restarted
on an outpatient basis.
# Atrial flutter: Patient has documented previous atrial flutter
and has a CHADS 2 score of at least 2 (given her age and history
of hypertension). Per outpatient cardiology notes, she is not
anticoagulated given fall risk due to decreased vision. She was
continued on home aspirin 81mg daily and home diltiazem ER 180
for rate control.
# Hyperlipidemia: Continue on home dose simvastatin 20mg once
daily
Transitional Issues:
# Venous stasis dermatitis and wound care: Dermatology
recommended compression daily, fluocinonide BID to affected
areas x 2 weeks/month max, emollients such as vaseline or
hydralatum, leg elevation whenever possible. For pain they
recommended topical capsaicin cream three to four times daily
for pain relief. She should also continue ACE wraps or
compression stockings and elevation of her legs as much as
possible. Followup with Dermatology scheduled for ___.
# Tinea pedis: Per Dermatology, she was started on clotrimazole
cream BID.
# Vascular surgery outpatient appointment was made for full
venous insufficiency workup and for ABI and peripheral vascular
disease workup. It is on ___.
# A1C 6.6: We noted the patient's glucose to be mildly elevated
in ~120s while inpatient. A1C qualifies as diabetes. Unclear if
the patient would be compliant with diabetic medications, and
she is not a good candidate for metformin given CKD. This is an
issue that can be further addressed with the patient's PCP.
# Simvastatin dose decreased to 10mg daily given risk of
myopathy with concurrent administration with diltiazem.
# Diltiazem ER dose decreased to 120mg daily from 180mg daily
since patient's heart rate was borderline at ___ while
inpatient.
# Lasix was restarted prior to discharge at a decreased dose of

Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital because you had increased
pain, swelling, and redness in your legs. You were evaluated by
the Dermatologists who recommended continuing daily compression
and creams to your legs. These creams include fluocinonide (a
steroid), hydrocerin (a moisturizing lotion), and capsaicin (to
relieve pain). You were discharged to rehab so that nurses there
can continue to care for your legs and so that you can get your
strength back again.
Additionally, while you were hospitalized, your kidney function
got slightly worse. This improved with hydration and some IV
fluids.
It was a pleasure to take care of you during your hospital stay.
We wish you the best,
Your ___ Team

History of Present Illness:
The patient is a ___ woman with a past medical history
of recent bilateral cerebellar infarcts with bilateral vertebral
artery dissections on warfarin and Lovenox who presents with new
right face and torso numbness.
On ___, patient awoke with a stiff neck. She denied
any antecedent neck manipulation or ___ or neck injury. She
massaged her neck and applied heat and took Aleve. On ___,
___, she noted a sense of "fogginess" while driving. Then,
when walking, she felt a sense of disequilibrium like "walking
on a floating deck on water." She went to her primary care
doctor where her systolic blood pressure was in the 190s and she
was referred to the emergency department at ___.
At ___, she was found to have bilateral vertebral artery
dissections and an MRA of the brain revealed bilateral
cerebellar embolic appearing infarcts. She was discharged on
___ with Lovenox and Coumadin.
After her discharge, on ___, she noted new onset bilateral
blurry vision. She continued to have a sense of disequilibrium
at rest that worsened when walking; however, the symptoms were
gradually improving.
On ___, she felt anxious while cooking and felt
like her heart was "accelerated" so she re-presented to ___.
___. She was transferred to ___ where she
had a repeat CTA ___ and neck which showed stable dissections
and an MRI of the brain that did not reveal any new infarcts.
She was discharged on ___.
On the day prior to presentation, ___, she went to her PCP
and had her INR checked. She reports that her INR was low so
her PCP recommended she double her warfarin from 5 mg daily to
10 mg daily.

- ___ OSH CTA
R vertebral artery dissection appears worse, which now starts
more proximally at the C7 level and extends to the C3 level w/
areas of moderate to severe focal narrowing.
Left vertebral artery dissection at the C1 level appears
slightly
improved since prior studies with persistent mild to moderate
narrowing.
No intracranial aneurysms, stenosis or occlusions identified
- ___ MR ___ w/o contrast
1. Left cerebellar and occipital, likely embolic, late acute
infarcts as described.
2. Sinus disease.
- ___ MRI cervical spine w/o contrast
1. Mild degenerative disc disease at C5-6. No spinal canal or
neural foraminal narrowing.
2. Normal caliber signal intensity of the visualized spinal
cord. No cord compression.
3. Multifocal narrowing and surrounding T1 hyperintense signal
of the right V2 segment, consistent with known dissection.
Known left distal V2/V3 segment dissection is excluded from the
fat-suppressed axial T1 weighted images.
4. 14 x 16 mm proteinaceous or hemorrhagic nodule in the right
lobe of the thyroid may represent a large colloid cyst, but is
incompletely evaluated. Further evaluation with ultrasound is
recommended if not performed already.
- ___ Ultrasound Renal Artery
Unremarkable renal ultrasound. No evidence of renal artery
stenosis.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ presented to an OSH with right sided numbness and
neck pain where a CTA revealed worsening of her R vertebral
artery dissection. She was transferred to ___ for further
management. MRI ___ showed left cerebellar and occipital late
acute infarcts. Her examination was notable for decreased
sensation to pinprick on the right face, arm, and leg, as well
as, cerebellar signs. Additionally, she had marked tenderness to
palpation of the right trapezius and muscles of the neck. Other
than hyperextensibility of both fifth fingers and being able to
place most of her hands on the ground when standing with her
knees locked, she did not have other joint hypermobility. There
is no clear evidence of a connective tissue disease such as
Ehlers Danlos type IV or Marfan's disease. Etiology of her
dissections is unclear, as no history of trauma could be
recalled. However, her dissections are in the most common (and
mobile) location along the course of the vertebral arteries.
Renal artery Doppler done to look for evidence of fibromuscular
dysplasia was negative. Etiology of her new right sided symptoms
also remains unclear, but may be due to a small infarct in the
brainstem that was not detected by MRI brain, muscle spasm and
inflammation affecting cutaneous sensory nerves, secondary
migraine headache, or anxiety/somatization. MRI of cervical
spine was normal, other than noting mild degenerative disc
disease at C5-6.
# BILATERAL VERTEBRAL DISSECTIONS: Brief review of course: She
initially presented to ___ ED on ___nd
dysequilibrium and had SBP in 190s. On ___ she re-presented to
___, was found to have bilateral dissections, and was
started on Coumadin with a Lovenox bridge. On ___ she presented
to ___ due to anxiety; MRI showed stable
dissections. On ___ her PCP increased her ___ from 5 to
10mg due to a still subtherapeutic INR. On ___ she presented to
St. ___ with the present symptoms of right neck pain, and
right face/arm numbness. CTA showed worsened right dissection so
she was transferred to ___. Her previous management was
continued. Assessment of etiology as above.
- Continue Coumadin 10mg DAILY. Goal INR ___.
- Plan to recheck INR tomorrow (___). If not within goal of
___, recheck on ___.
- PCP ___ further manage Coumadin when INR within goal, then
stop Lovenox.
- Patient was referred to call our neuro-geneticist, Dr. ___
___ (___), to schedule an appointment to work-up
possible connective tissue disease.
# CEREBELLAR STROKES, # LEFT OCCIPITAL STROKES: Etiology likely
embolic secondary to vertebral dissections.
- Continue anticoagulation as above.
- Follow-up scheduled with stroke neurology (Drs. ___
and ___ on ___.

# NECK PAIN: Secondary to dissections. Also likely triggering
more diffuse muscle tension and back pain, as well as possible
secondary neuropathic phenomena and/or migraine headaches.
- Avoid NSAIDs since already on dual anticoagulation.
- Acetaminophen 650mg Q4H PRN.
- Prescribed capsaicin cream TID PRN.
- Prescribed Flexeril 10mg BID PRN.
- Prescribed lidocaine 5% patches DAILY PRN.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of right sided numbness
and neck pain initially concerning for stroke. You had an MRI,
which showed a new stroke affecting the portion of the brain
that controls balance, as well as, the region that affects
vision. The stroke resulted from a blood vessel that provides
oxygen and nutrients to the brain to be blocked by a clot. The
numbness and neck pain you've been experiencing; however, is
unrelated to the stroke. The cause of your symptoms is not
entirely clear, but may be due to muscle tension.
- Please wear your soft cervical collar at night when sleeping
- continue to use heat to soften these muscle
Please take your other medications as prescribed.
Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician
as listed below.
If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek
emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical
Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur,
please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of
these symptoms:
- Sudden partial or complete loss of vision
- Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth
- Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to
you
- Sudden weakness of one side of the body
- Sudden drooping of one side of the face
- Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body
Sincerely,

History of Present Illness:
The pt is a ___ year-old F w/ PMH of b/l vertebral dissections
c/b multiple CVAs in ___ and Asthma who presents from OSH due
to
concern for progressing R vertebral dissection in setting of
worsened headache sx. Hx obtained from pt and mother at bedside.
Pt reports acute onset of severe throbbing pain over L posterior
occiput at 2pm which lasted for 1 hour and then spontaneously
resolved, followed by reappearance of similar headache over R
posterior occiput, with pain radiating down her R arm into
fingers. This pain gradually evolved into a pressure-like
sensation that intermittently spread up to her vertex, feeling
like "hot oil dripping over my head". Associated with this pain
was mild intermittent L sided chest pain and "rocking on a boat"
sensation. She called her PCP who recommended going to OSH ED.
Upon arrival to OSH ED, she also started developing a squeezing
R
frontal headache, waxing and waning in nature as well as mild
nausea. These latter sx improved with administration of Tylenol
and Zofran. While in the ED, around 10pm she started noticing
visual changes characterized by things becoming "fuzzy" and
moving in her vision, worse in L eye. She underwent CTA H&N
which
was concerning for worsening R vertebral dissection. Pt's outpt
neurologist (Dr. ___ who recommended pt be transferred to
___ for further management.
Pt denies any clear diplopia, room-spinning sensation,
dysarthria, or dysphagia. No new focal numbness or weakness.
States she had some chills earlier this week but no fevers or
other infectious sx. No recent head trauma or falls. She reports
that her Warfarin was recently decreased to 10mg from 15mg due
to
INR being elevated up to 4 last week, with follow up levels
downtrended to 0.8 this ___. She reports her INR level is
known to fluctuate and has required her to stay intermittently
on
Lovenox despite being so far out from last noted stroke.
Pt was initially admitted to ___ from ___isequilibrium, and elevated BP to 190s with
imaging showing b/l vertebral artery dissections and b/l
cerebellar embolic appearing infarcts. She was discharged at
that
time on Lovenox bridge to Warfarin. She was admitted soon after
on ___ to ___ for increased anxiety and
repeat
workup which showed only stable dissections. On ___, she
developed R neck pain and R face/arm numbness for which she
managed at ___ with CTA showing worsening R vertebral artery
dissection and MRI showing new L cerebellar/occipital infarcts.
She was discharged on ___ with same anticoagulant plan of care,
soft C-Collar to wear at night, and follow up with Dr.
___
to evaluate for underlying connective tissue disease (pt reports
that genetic testing has been sent out but no results as of
yet).

History of Present Illness:
This is a ___ year old woman with a significant stroke history
notable for bilateral cerebellar infarcts (___) including
left cerebellar infarct and left occipital infarct (___)
secondary to bilateral vertebral artery dissection thought to be
related to undiagnosed connective tissue, with genetic workup
only revealing for SMAD3 (reviewed below). She presents today as
___ transfer out of concern for new right vertebral artery
dissection.
History obtained by patient and her sister at bedside.
Per patient, she reports that she was in her usual state of
health up until two weeks ago when she noticed bilateral neck
pain that migrated from one side of her neck to the other. She
initially thought she had tight neck muscles related to stress,
as she has been undergoing several exacerbating stressors with
her parents (she does not wish to go into the details on history
today, but notes that she has had to stop talking to her parents
in the interim to avoid the stress). Her pain persisted and she
says perhaps subconsciously she was worried she was having a
similar event as that which happened on ___ and ___,
because both of these events were also precipitated by similar
neck pain. As such she started to take 81 mg aspirin on a daily
basis. She decided to give the symptoms time to see if they
___. Unfortunately, they persisted. This morning she
woke up with progression of her neck pain to being completely
vertiginous, with a sensation that the room was spinning even as
she lay in bed. She tried to get up to vomit and noted
difficulty
making it to the toilet without stumbling. She then had to vomit
for "close to an hour." After the vomiting, her boyfriend
encouraged her to go to the hospital. As she was getting ready
to
get into his car, she suddenly developed blurry vision. Her
boyfriend thought he noticed one of her eyes look funny, as if
it
were "lazy." She at this point noted that she just couldn't
swallow. She was able to talk and to understand, but couldn't
swallow her saliva. She got into her boyfriend's car and within
10 minutes, her blurry vision resolved and she could swallow
again.
She was taken to OSH where she was given ASA 81 mg. CTA head and
neck was concerning for new right V4 dissection and she was
transferred to ___ for further management.
Regarding prior stroke history:
- ___: bilateral cerebellar stroke from bilateral vertebral
artery dissection
- ___: left cerebellar, left occipital stroke from repeat
dissection
- maintained on warfarin and lovenox, lovenox stopped,
maintained
only on warfarin,, then warfarin discontinued ___
- was reportedly advised to continue ASA 81 mg and vitamin C
Etiology of stroke thought to be related to undiagnosed
connective tissue disorder. As per Dr. ___:
"
No inciting cause for the dissections has been found. The
thoracic aortic aneurysm panel showed that she has a
heterozygous
mutation of uncertain significance in the ___ gene. This
mutation has not previously been linked to any pathology. Of
note, the SMAD3 gene encodes for important proteins that play a
role in the TGF B pathway. Some SMAD3 mutations may lead to the
___ connective tissue disorder."
The patient notes that she did not take aspirin every day until
feeling her neck pain two weeks ago. No recent neck traumas,
whip
lash, head injuries.
ROS:
On neurological review of systems, the patient denies
confusion,
difficulties producing or comprehending speech, loss of vision,
diplopia, dysarthria, dysphagia, lightheadedness, vertigo,
tinnitus or hearing difficulty. Denies focal weakness, numbness,

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of nausea, dizziness,
vision changes and difficulty swallowing resulting from an ACUTE
ISCHEMIC STROKE, a condition where a blood vessel providing
oxygen and nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot. The
brain is the part of your body that controls and directs all the
other parts of your body, so damage to the brain from being
deprived of its blood supply can result in a variety of
symptoms.
Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for
medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke.
In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk
factors. Your risk factors are:
- Presumed connective tissue disorder
We are changing your medications as follows:
- Begin taking Plavix 75mg daily for 3 weeks
- Continue taking Aspirin 81mg daily indefinitely
Please take your other medications as prescribed.
Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician
as listed below.
If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek
emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical
Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur,
please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of
these symptoms:
- Sudden partial or complete loss of vision
- Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth
- Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to
you
- Sudden weakness of one side of the body
- Sudden drooping of one side of the face
- Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body
Sincerely,
Your ___ Neurology Team

#Suicidal ideation
The patient presented with suicidal ideation, depression,
aggressive behavior and failure to thrive at home. She was also
experiencing visual and auditory hallucinations, had been
combative with family members, and had attempted to harm
herself. She additionally had rapidly deteriorating functional
status, unable to complete ADLs unassisted. Initially, she was
placed on ___ along with a 1:1 sitter. Infectious and
metabolic workup were negative. On the first day after
hospitalization, her agitation and aggressive behavior had
resolved, and the 1:1 sitter was discontinued. Later in this
hospitalization, her ___ was lifted after she
consistently denied any thought of harming herself. She was
started and uptitrated on Seroquel, with significant improved
control of her agitation and improvement in ability to perform
ADLs. Her hallucinations also resolved after starting on
Seroquel, which was thought to partially contribute to her
improved ability to perform ADLs. Additionally, her home
escitalopram was also increased. Her baseline mental status at
home is alert and oriented to person only, with intermittent
mumbling of words that are sometimes nonsensical, and this
condition continued this admission. By discharge, her behavior
was generally well-controlled, though she had frequently tearful
affect, and when agitated she could be easily directed using
non-pharmacologic means.

Brief Hospital Course:
Surgical course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old man admitted from rehab facility
with abdominal pain, fever, and hypotension. Recent history
notable for left hip disarticulation ___ subsequent to
complications from LLE ischemia and fem-fem PTFE bypass ___
followed by left AKA and wound ischemia - CTA showed perfusion
up to left internal iliac artery. He initially presented on ___
and complained of no left hip discomfort. The patient was
hypotensive, tachycardic, and had abdominal tenderness. CT of
abdomen showed diverticulitis and the patient was started on
antibioitics, pressors for hypotension, a central line was
placed and he was admitted to the ICU for ongoing close
monitoring and intervention.
While in the ICU, a bedside echo was obtained, which was
reassuring for cardiac function. He was also on pressors at this
time. A radial A-line was placed, and he was evaluated by
orthopedic surgery who did not suspect a surgical site
infection. They recommended a vascular surgery consult as they
believed the free air was like from removal of fem-fem graft.
On ___ he was found to be C Diff positive, and oral vancomycin
was started in addition to the intravenous antibiotics that he
was on at that time. Zosyn was discontinued. A-line was
non-functional, and removed. He was started on a diet of ice
chips. He continued to require pressors.
On ___ he did not have any ICU needs and was transferred to the
floor in good condition.
The patient remained alert but intermittently agitated.
___ resolved leukocytosis
___ 5mg IV haloperidol for severe agitation; restrictions
in place
___ OR for hip washout, cont PO vanc, d/c abx, adv reg diet
___ persistent agitation, improved from earlier in the week
___ persistent agitation, improved pain
___: Excisional debridement more than 20 square cm in the
left hip excisional including the skin and subcutaneous tissues.
Complex closure of surgical wound measuring 14 cm in length.
Medicine transfer ___:
Patient was transferred with concern for delirium. Course on
the medical service as follows:
#Delirium- On initial exam he was found to be alert and oriented
x3 without evidence of delirum. Electrolytes and testing for TSH
and B12 wnl. Delirium likely in the setting of prolonged
hospitalization as infection. He had no further episodes after
transfer to medicine and was therefore transferred to rehab on
___.
#Surgical site infection: Most recent cultures with ___
(sensitive to daptomycin) and yeast, likely C. Glabrata given
prevouious cutltures. He was started on IV Daptomycin as well as
Micafungin. Plan for 4 weeks of IV antibiotics with ID follow up
and monitoring labs.
#C.diff colitis: Continued on PO vanc with improvement of
diarrhea. Will need to continue PO vanc until at least the
completion of above antibiotic course. Further course of vanco
to be determined by ID at follow up.
# diverticulitis: He was not on antibiotics at the time of
transfer to the medicine service and it appears that he did not
receive a complete course of abx while on the surgical service.
Given he was asymptomatic and stable while on the medicine
service, no further antibiotics were given.
#Urinary retention: Following removal of foley catheter, patient
failed a voiding trial with PVR of 750cc requiring straight
cath. He continued to have difficulty urinating x2 with PVR of
650cc. Another foley was placed. CT scan without evidence of
enlarged prostate so patient will not benefit from Tamsulosin.
Retention likely in the setting of post operative opioid use.
Consider Urology follow up outpatient if he continues to fail
voiding trials.
#DM- Patient denies history of DM prior to hospitalization. He
was started on sliding scale but did not require any insulin
while on medicine floor. His HgbA1C was 5.6% (in the setting of
transfusion in the past month). Given his low HgbA1c and
relatively normal fasting glucose (100-130), he likely does not
have diabetes. HgbA1c will need to be rechecked in a few months
to ensure that the transfusion did not give a falsely low
result.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
- Complete course of Daptomycin 550 IVq24 (D1 = ___ for ___,
and Micafungin 100 mg
IV Q24H through ___ (tentative) - will be followed in

- Follow up with Orthopedics surgery in 2 weeks following
discharge for evaluation and removal of staples on the left
surgical site
- Found to have a stable 2.1 cm left adrenal nodule on CT
abdomen, statistically likely an adenoma. Recommend correlation

follow up if he fails additional voiding trails
- Obtain repeat HgbA1c in ___ months as we suspect inpatient
value is confounded by transfusions

Past Medical History:
ONCOLOGY HISTORY: Ms. ___ initially began feeling unwell the
end of ___. She noticed swelling in her stomach with
associated shooting abdominal pain. She additionally noticed
changes in her bowel habits and constipation. She underwent a
colonoscopy on ___ which showed a mass in the ascending
colon
showing moderately differentiated invasive adenocarcinoma with
overlying normal mucosa. Tumor cells are immunoreactive for CDX2
and negative for CK-7, CK-20, WT-1, ER, TTF-1, PAX8, PAX2,
mammoglobin, and GCDFP. Additionally, KRAS mutation was not
detected on her biopsy and MSI testing showed intact expression
of MLH-1, PMS-2, MSH-2 and MSH-6. EGD was also done due to some
dysphagia she was experiencing and revealed ___ mucosa. A
CT of her abd/pelvis on ___ revealed the ascending colon
mass along with omental caking and 2 hepatic hypodensities that
were incompletely characterized. CT chest on ___ showed
tiny
right diaphragmatic lymph nodes that could be an early
manifestation of malignancy the where clearly not pathologically
enlarged. Small left thyroid nodule also visualized and u/s is
recommended. On ___, PET scan revealed known ascending colon
mass demonstrates intense FDG uptake with SUV max 21.6, diffuse
omental caking and nodularity, demonstrating intense FDG uptake,
with SUV max 10.2, compatible with metastatic disease, multiple
foci of intense FDG uptake in the liver, compatible with
metastases, and an asymmetric small focus of FDG uptake in the
region of the right lingual tonsil, which may be reactive.
Additionally on ___, MRI of liver demonstrated at least 4
liver lesions as detailed above consistent with metastatic
disease, further metastatic disease in the abdomen with
partially
visualized omental caking and early implants along the right
liver edge, and a 4 mm pancreatic tail side-branch IPMN.
She underwent tissue bx with cytology of a R omentum lesion on
___ which was positive for malignant cells. She also had a
SL POC placed in ___ on ___ for chemo initiation. Since her
PET scan revealed some uptake in her R lingual tonsil, she
underwent a thyroid u/s on ___ which recommended a bx of a
left
lower pole nodule due to its size. FNA was performed on ___ at
the ___ thyroid clinic which was benign and consistent with a
macrofollicular lesion.
Recent CT on ___ of her chest/abd for staging showed
ascending colon neoplasia with worsened hepatic and omental
metastases since the CT from ___, but unchanged from
the
previous MRI from ___ and no evidence of metastatic
disease in the thorax.
- ___ FOLFOX/Avastin/Vitamin D
- ___ FOLFOX/Avastin/Vitamin D - neupogen added
due to late nadir. Patient experienced tongue swelling and lisp
shortly after receiving oxaliplatin.

IMAGING:
========
+ CTA Abd & Pelvis (___):
1. 3 mm obstructing stone in the left proximal ureter causing
upstream mild hydroureteronephrosis. There is fluid tracking
along the course of the left ureter and into the pelvis. Of
note, IV contrast has not yet been excreted into the ureter.
2. No evidence of mesenteric ischemia.
3. Multiple hepatic hypodense lesions have not significantly
changed.
4. Stable omental caking, as compared to prior.
+ CT CHEST (___):
1. Multiple ill-defined small ground-glass opacities with
subpleural
predominance are new. Findings may reflect early manifestation
of drug
toxicity. Other possible etiologies include
atypical/opportunistic infection or inflammatory process,
including organizing pneumonia. Atypical manifestation of
metastasis is less likely.
2. Several pulmonary nodules measuring 2 mm or less are stable.
+ KUB (___): 1. Multiple bilateral renal radiopaque
densities consistent with renal calculi. 2. Gaseous colonic
distention. 3. Phleboliths in the lower pelvis.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mrs. ___ is a ___ year old female with rheumatoid arthritis and
metastatic colon cancer to liver and omentum on phase II trial
of vitamin D vs. placebo with allergic reaction s/p C16 of
___ FOLFOX/Avastin/Vitamin D who presented with L flank pain
radiating to the groin, found to have obstructing 3mm L proximal
uteteric stone with mild hydronephrosis, and admitted to ___
for pain control and medical mgmt of kidney stone.
# Nephrolithiasis: On admission patient presented with L flank
pain, found to have obstructing 3mm L proximal ureteric stone
with mild hydronephrosis, periureteric edema most likely
reactive in nature. His initial labs were notable for a normal
WBC count, no ___ and UA with RBC >182, 1+ hyaline cast but
otherwise no leuk esterase/nitrites or WBCs in the urine. During
this admission pt remained afebrile, HD stable, w/o leukocytosis
or ___, and with UA notable for RBCs but otherwise
non-infectious. Patient was medically managed to pass her stone,
and was started on Tamsulosin 0.4 mg PO QHS which was continued
until the stone was passed, IVF hydration ___ NS at
200cc/hr) and her pain was controlled with Tylenol, Ketorolac
15mg IV, Dilaudid PCA 0.12mg q6min, 1.2mg max per hour and
Dilaudid IV 1mg Q2H PRN for breakthrough pain. Her nausea was
controlled with Ondansetron ___ mg IV q8h prn. She was unable to
pass her stone, so she was taken for uterescopy with urology.
During this procedure, the stone could not be visualized, and so
lithotripsy was aborted, and a ureteral stent was placed.
Patient did well with stent in place, with reduced need for oral
pain medications. Pt will continue to take Flomax as an
outpatient and will followup with urology in ___ weeks after
discharge to assess for passage of stone vs a ___ trial of
lithrotripsy. Etiology of stone was unclear as she has history
of nephrolithiasis but is also on Vitamin D, which may
theoretically exacerbate calcium oxoalate stones. A KUB showed
multiple radiopaque renal caliculi consistent with calcium
stones. 24H urine collection had predominance of uric acid over
calcium. As the stone was not passed during admission she was
discharged with instructions to continue straining urine and to
bring stone in for pathology.
# Colon Cancer metastatic to omentum and liver: On admission,
patient had just finished her most recent round of
FOLFOX/Avastin/Vitamin D while waiting in ED. She was monitored
for nadir of WBC, and was started on Neupogen. Plan was made for
patient to continue her neupogen until followup with her primary
oncologist, during which time a decision would be made to
continue or d/c Neupogen. Vitamin D was discontinued during stay
given possible contribution to nephrolithiasis.
# Rheumatoid arthritis/osteoarthritis: During this admission,
pts RA was managed with patients home dose hydroxychloroquine,
but her meloxicam was held as an inpatient, with plan to resume
meloxicam after discussion with her PCP.
#Hyperlipidemia: During this admission, pt was continued on home
simvastatin 10mg QPM
# Mood disturbance: During this admission, pt was continued on
home Sertraline 25 mg qD and Lorazepam 1 mg po q6h for anxiety
relief.
#GERD: During this admission, pt was continued on home
Ranitidine 150 mg PO DAILY.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
==========================
- please followup in outpatient in ___ clinic in ~2wks to
discuss definitive stone management/stent removal
- Please ensure urine is strained. Once stone passed it should
be sent to pathology for further analysis.
- Research supply of blinded Vitamin D was discontinued during
hospitalization given possible contribution to stone formation.
- Please follow-up pts CBC to determine continued use of
Neupogen. Pt is s/p C16 of AVASTIN/FOLFOX/Vitamin D, and was
started on Neupogen in setting of dropping WBC and concern for
reaching a nadir.
- Please follow-up staging scan obtained during her hospital
visit as part of her AVASTIN/FOLFOX/VITAMIN D trial.
- Please followup final read of KUB for calcium vs uric acid
stone

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
___ was a pleasure taking care of you during your recent
admission to ___.
You were admitted due to severe L flank pain and were found on
CT imaging to have a 3mm kidney stone in the L ureter. You were
assessed by urology in the hospital, who elected no immediate
intervention. You were treated on the oncology medicine service
with Tamsulosin and IV fluids to help you pass the stone, and
were given pain control with Dilaudid IV medication. You were
further given medications to help with your nausea. Our
urologists placed a stent into your ureter to aid in passing
your stone. You should continue straining your urine until you
have passed the stone and then bring it in for pathology to
analyze. Finally you should followup with Urology as an
outpatient to discuss stone management and stent removal.
During your stay, you were also started on Neupogen as you had
recently completed your most recent round of chemotherapy
(FOLFOX/Avastin/Vit D). You will followup with your primary
oncologist to ensure that your cell counts continue to improve.
Please followup with the appointments below that have been setup
on your behalf. Once again, it was a pleasure to take care of
you during your stay.
We wish you the best!

metastases, and an asymmetric small focus of FDG uptake in the
region of the right lingual tonsil, which may be reactive.
Additionally on ___, MRI of liver demonstrated at least 4
liver lesions as detailed above consistent with metastatic
disease, further metastatic disease in the abdomen with
partially visualized omental caking and early implants along the
right liver edge, and a 4 mm pancreatic tail side-branch IPMN.
She underwent tissue bx with cytology of a R omentum lesion on
___ which was positive for malignant cells. She also had a
SL POC placed in ___ on ___ for chemo initiation. Since her
PET scan revealed some uptake in her R lingual tonsil, she

Brief Hospital Course:
Patient is an ___ year old female with history of hypertension,
hyperlipidemia, diastolic heart failure, diabetes and stage 4
chronic kidney disease who presents with weakness in the legs
and cough.
ACTIVE ISSUES
------------
# Weakness: Differential diagnosis included general weakness
secondary to underlying infection versus knee instability versus
dehydration. If not one of these clinical entities, then it is
possible that these clinical entities together may have
contributed to the patient's clinical picture. Orthostatic
vital signs were negative. X-ray of the right knee showed
chronic arthritic changes. ___ evaluated the patient and
recommended home with ___ and ___ services.
# Fever: Patient with one documented fever in the ED to 101.4
for which the patient received acetaminophen. Differential
diagnosis included viral URI in light of recent cough versus
pneumonia (though no focal consolidation present) versus urinary
tract infection. UA and urine culture were negative. Patient's
fever and cough most likely consistent with viral URI. Patient
remained afebrile throughout her hospitalization.
# Cough: Patient with cough with evidence of small bilateral
pleural effusions on CXR. Viral URI is most likely diagnosis.
# Hypernatremia: Likely secondary to dehydration. Furosemide
was held, and patient was encouraged to take PO, after which
sodium trended down to 143.
INACTIVE ISSUES
--------------
# Chronic kidney disease: Patient with metabolic acidosis, which
likely secondary to underlying kidney disease. Patient is on
bicarbonate tabs as an outpatient. Creatinine has recently been
2.4 as an outpatient and creatinine remained stable during her
admission.
# Hypertension: Per PCP documentation, patient with difficult to
control blood pressure. Patient's clonidine patch was recently
increased in light of persistently elevated blood pressure at
outpatient appointments to two patches. Patient was continued
on hydralazine, losartan, and labetalol at home dosing as well
as clonidine patch. Furosemide was held but restarted on
discharge.
# Anemia: hematocrit stable. She receives darbepoetin alfa as an
outpatient.
# Hyperlipidemia: patient was continued on her statin.
# Diabetes: Patient not on oral mediations nor insulin as an
outpatient.

Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN: Ms. ___ is a ___, PMH Asthma and COPD
presenting with fevers, chills and cough productive of green
thick mucus x 5 days.
ACUTE ISSUES:
# COPD/PNA: Patient presents with complaints of fevers, chills
and cough with increased sputum production concerning for COPD
exacerbation. Her exacerbation was likely triggered by viral
vs. bacterial PNA given that she has been experiencing fevers
and chills as well as the LLL opacity/inflammation seen on her
CXR. Favor viral given onset of sxs with sore throat and
fatigue. Given that her influenza DFA was negative and she has
no recent hospitalizations would favor treated for CAP along
with exacerbation of her COPD. Will continue Azithromycin for
COPD/PNA given that may help more with the inflammatory of
exacerbation. She was also continued on standing Duonebs. She
remained stable overnight and was satting well on RA on day of
discharge. She was d/c home with Prednisone taper until seen by
PCP who can determine the need for continued slow taper. She
will also complete ad 5 day course of Azithromycin. Her
outpatient Pulmonologist was consulted who agreed with the plan.
Social work and case management provided assistance with
helping pt get a nebulizer and humidifier in her home.
# Chest Pain: patient also report CP associated with her
worsening cough. This is likely musculoskeletal. She has takes
ASA daily and has a significant smoking hx, but has no known
cardiac history, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, or known family hx.
Also reassuring is that her CP is right sided, in addition, her
EKG was unchanged from prior in OMR. She was continued on home
Percocet for low back pain and tylenol. On day of discharge her
CP had greatly improved.
# Tobacco use: patient has been attempting to decrease her
cigarette consumption. She got in the prayer line at church and
was able to cut back. Currently she takes two puffs of a
cigarette and throws it away. She does this on about ~3
cigarettes per day. She was placed on nicotine patch while in
hospital, but patient preferred to get electronic cigarettes
upon discharge.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
- Pt d/c home with new ___ services to help with teaching
technique on new Nebulizer. Also to help use humidifier to
decrease environmental dust/dryness in the home.
- Pt would benefit from additional teaching on proper Inhaler
use
- Pt complained of buttock pain, not associated with movement,
but TTP, no obvious areas of flutuance were noted on exam.
Should be monitored upon follow-up.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ with history of asthma and COPD (not on O2) with recent
hospitalization for COPD exacerbation, presents with one day of
severe shortness of breath and grunting, admitted to the MICU
for respiratory distress and tachycardia, found to have
parainfluenza virus.
# COPD/asthma exacerbation/respiratory failure: Patient has
known COPD with a component of reversibility consistent with
asthma. This exacerbation may have been triggered by a
combination of viral or bacterial respiratory illness, smoking,
medication non-adherence. Patient presented with respiratory
distress and grunting not responding to frequent nebulizers and
IV solumedrol. She was placed on BIPAP but continued to show
increased work of breathing and signs of respiratory fatigue,
and was intubated on ___. She was extubated on ___, but
re-intubated later that afternoon for respiratory distress not
improving with BIPAP. She was started on azithromycin on ___,
then changed to levofloxacin on ___ with concern for resistant
organisms given the severity of her COPD exacerbation and rapid
clinical deterioration. She is to complete a 7 day course of
levofloxacin, ending ___ for community-acquired pneumonia. In
terms of other possible etiologies for her respiratory failure,
a CTA ruled out pulmonary embolus. Cardiac echo revealed normal
ejection fraction, but mild mitral regurgitation. Bronchoscopy
was performed on ___ which was notable for purulent material
visualized on the left. Left lung bronchial washings were
positive for parainfluenza virus type 3 which was thought to be
the cause of the patient's prolonged course of respiratory
distress and re-intubation. The patient was again extubated on
___ with improved respiratory status and only occasional
wheezes. She was satting well on room air with ambulatory sats
94-97% on room air. Discharged on PRN albuterol, ipratropium,
symbicort and prenisone taper, with pulmonologist follow up in
two weeks.
# Chest pain/jaw pain: EKG similar to baseline and repeat EKG
without ischemic changes. Cardiac enzymes were negative x 2.
Pain only seems to come when pt is in respiratory distress, so
may be due to tachypnea, anxiety. Cardiac etiology was ruled out
as above. She had no further chest pain after leaving ICU.
# ___ abuse: Maintained on nicotine patch and encouraged
smoking cessation.
# Chronic pain: Maintained on oxycodone while in house (takes
percocet at home).
# ETOH: Patient reports increased alcohol consumption since the
death of her close friend in ___. Maintained on CIWA scale
q6h, did not score. Social work was consulted.
# Healthcare maintenance: Continued calcium/vitamin D
Transition of care issues:
- Recommend ultrasound follow-up of thyroid nodules incidentally
found on CTA
- Encourage continued smoking cessation
- Prednisone taper to continue until she sees Dr. ___
- ___ stay at rehab less than 30 days

Transverse and sagittal images of the left lower quadrant were
obtained
without and with Valsalva.
There is visualization of surgical mesh which limits the
examination. Within the medial left lower quadrant at the
inferior/lateral aspect of the surgical mesh there is a small
soft tissue bulge with a small amount of fluid which is located
just lateral to the mesh and likely represents a small recurrent
reducible hernia. There is a defect incompletely visualized
measuring approximately 5 mm and a hernial sac measuring 1.5 x
1.8 cm.
IMPRESSION:
Limited visualization due to the presence of surgical mesh.
There is a small amount of fluid with a likely recurrent
reducible hernia at the lateral more inferior aspect of the
surgical mesh in the left lower quadrant.
Brief Hospital Course:
PATIENT SUMMARY:
================
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old F w/ hx of CCY, nephrolithiasis, SBO
s/p lysis of adhesions, R salpingo-oophrectomy, rectal
intussusception, chronic GI dysmotility, pelvic floor
dysfunction, and IBS who presented with nausea, poor appetite,
and crampy abdominal pain. In the hospital she was put on a
bowel regimen of Miralax and enemas twice a day with the
addition of bisacodyl suppositories and her abdominal pain
improved. She had an ultrasound which revealed a reducible
hernia.
ACUTE/ACTIVE ISSUES:
==================
# Abdominal pain
Her pain was likely multifactorial from her complex abdominal
anatomy, IBS, pelvic floor dysfunction, and functional abdominal
pain. She also had constipation. A KUB on admission was
unremarkable for obstruction and ileus. LLQ US showed a small
reducible hernia in the left lower quadrant. Serial exams were
non peritoneal. Her pain was managed with Ketorolac 15 mg IV
every 8 hours as needed and Tylenol 1 gram every 8 hours as
needed. Opiate pain medications were avoided. She was put on a
bowel regimen of twice to three times a day miralax and enemas
with bisacodyl suppositories and home hyoscamine was held. GI
was consulted with no recommendations for intervention during
this admission. The pain service was consulted who recommend
following up for an outpatient nerve block and titration of pain
medications. Of note, nerve block will be most helpful when
patient has the most pain.
CHRONIC/STABLE ISSUES:
=====================
# Insomnia
She received Ramelteon every night.
# HSV suppression
Home valacyclovir was resumed on discharge.
# Chronic pain
Home 300 mg gabapentin qhs was continued and 100mg in the
morning was added
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
[] follow up abdominal pain and consider outpatient pain clinic
appointment for nerve block when patient has acute pain. Per
pain service, diagnostic value of block is best if patient is
acutely having pain at time of block.
[] Consider uptitrating gabapentin as tolerated.
[] follow up for reducible hernia--consider general surgery
follow up if patient with persistent pain
[] GI follow up for consideration of Prucalopride, donnatal,
librax, and IBgard

the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies
to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap.
o You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable.
o You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a
time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you
can resume tub baths or swimming.

TTE
CONCLUSION:
The left atrial volume index is mildly increased. The right
atrium is moderately enlarged. There is no
evidence of an atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale by
2D/color Doppler or agitated saline at rest
and with maneuvers. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___
mmHg. There is mild symmetric left
ventricular hypertrophy with a normal cavity size. There is
suboptimal image quality to assess regional
left ventricular function. Overall left ventricular systolic
function is normal. Quantitative biplane left
ventricular ejection fraction is 60 %. There is no resting left
ventricular outflow tract gradient. Normal
right ventricular cavity size with normal free wall motion. The
aortic sinus diameter is normal for gender
with mildly dilated ascending aorta. The aortic arch is mildly
dilated. An aortic valve bioprosthesis is
present. The prosthesis is well seated with normal gradient.
There is no aortic regurgitation. The mitral
valve leaflets appear structurally normal with no mitral valve
prolapse. There is trivial mitral
regurgitation. The tricuspid valve leaflets appear structurally
normal. There is mild [1+] tricuspid
regurgitation. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure
is normal. There is no pericardial
effusion.
CTA HEAD AND NECK
IMPRESSION:
1. Focal left V4 segment atherosclerotic plaque without
significant narrowing.
No evidence of high-grade stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm of
the carotid or
vertebral arteries.
2. Aneurysmally dilated ascending aorta measuring 4.7 cm.
Further evaluation
with dedicated CTA of the chest is recommended if not previously
worked up.
3. Enlarged main pulmonary artery measuring 3.6 cm. Findings may
be secondary
to pulmonary arterial hypertension.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Aneurysmally dilated ascending aorta
measuring 4.7 cm.
Further evaluation with dedicated CTA of the chest is
recommended if not
previously worked up.
ABDOMINAL US
IMPRESSION:
1. Cholelithiasis, without additional evidence of acute
cholecystitis.
Specifically, a stone is noted in the gallbladder neck.
2. Echogenic liver consistent with steatosis. Other forms of
liver disease
including steatohepatitis, hepatic fibrosis, or cirrhosis cannot
be excluded
on the basis of this examination.
Brief Hospital Course:
In brief, Mr. ___ is a ___ year old right handed male with
history of atrial fibrillation on apixaban, prior R retinal
artery occlusion in ___ with central right visual loss, AVR
repair in ___ who presented with transient episode right leg
weakness then transient episode left arm weakness in the setting
of recent
non-compliance with taking apixaban. On arrival he was
asymptomatic. His exam was only notable for chronic right
central vision loss as well as mild left dysmetria on finger
nose finger. ___ showed no acute ischemia or hemorrhage, CTA
head and neck showed no large vessel occlusion.
We think his presentation is most concerning for transient
ischemic attack most likely from a cardioembolic source given
his known history of atrial fibrillation and several missed
doses of apixaban. A trans-thoracic echo showed no
cardiacembolic source.
Atorvastatin was started for an LDL level of 126.
Incidentally we noted an elevated lipase of 800 on admission.
There were no abdominal symptoms. An abdominal ultrasound was
negative for cholecystitis or pancreatitis. Gallstones were
noted. His lipase improved to 52 (normal) prior to discharge.
Also incidentally noted on his CTA was an aneurysmal ascending
aorta measuring up to 4.7 cm. Evaluation by vascular surgery as
an outpatient is recommended.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of transient right leg
weakness and numbness and transient left arm weakness likely
resulting from a TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK, a condition where a
blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is
temporarily blocked by a clot. The brain is the part of your
body that controls and directs all the other parts of your body,
so damage to the brain from being deprived of its blood supply
can result in a variety of symptoms.
TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACKS (TIAs) can have many different
causes, so we assessed you for medical conditions that might
raise your risk of having TIAs. In order to prevent future
strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors
are:
- Atrial fibrillation
- High cholesterol
- Missing doses of your apixaban(blood thinner)
We are changing your medications as follows:
-Please continue taking apixaban 5 mg twice daily, it is really
important that you do not miss any doses
-Please start atorvastatin at 40 mg nightly
Please take your other medications as prescribed.
Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician
as listed below.
If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek
emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical
Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur,
please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of
these symptoms:
- Sudden partial or complete loss of vision
- Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth
- Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to
you
- Sudden weakness of one side of the body
- Sudden drooping of one side of the face
- Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body
Sincerely,

History of Present Illness:
This is an ___ year old woman with afib on eliquis, CAD, CHFpEF,
HTN, HLD, hypothyroidism who presents to ___ ED from ___ for evaluation of cerebellar hemorrhage found on
outpatient MRI for workup of dysarthria.
History obtained by patient and per chart review. Mrs. ___
reports that the was feeling well up until ___ when she
received a shingles shot. After receiving the shingles shot,
she
has noticed that her speech became slurred. She associates this
with a shingles shot that she received because that is one of
the
adverse effects that she read as part of the shot information
page and so she didn't think much of it. For the next ___ days
she felt very unwell, with general malaise but no nausea or
vomiting. She thought maybe she was having a mild cold-like
reaction to the shot. Yesterday, she saw her therapist who
became
concerned. Her nephew also became concerned, noting that she
persistently sounds as if she has a swollen tongue. She thus
presented to outpatient for further evaluation who ordered an
MRI
which demonstrated cerebellar hemorrhage. She was thus
transferred to ___ for further workup.
She notes she has been adherent with her eliquis and took it
this
morning. She gets high blood pressure mostly in hospitals or
doctor offices but otherwise thinks her pressure has been
running
well. Prior to ___, she has not noticed any worsening gait
instability, slurred speech, veering to one side, difficulty
swallowing, double vision, sensory changes. No fever, chills.
She
does note that she has a history of headaches for which she
takes
fioricet. She got a "terrible" headache two days ago but this
was
consistent with her typical headaches and resovled with 1xtablet
fioricet.
Regarding cancer screening, she notes that she has had two skin
lesions that have recently been removed that she thought were
cancerous but she does not recall the details. She has had a
hysterectomy for fibroids but no malignancy. She is up to date
on
her colonoscopy (last one ___ years ago). She has not smoked for
decades.

other parts of your body, so damage to the brain can result in a
variety of symptoms.
Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for
medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke.
In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk
factors. Your risk factors are:
1) atrial fibrillation on anticoagulation
2) high blood pressure
We are changing your medications as follows:
1) holding your anticoagulation ("eliquis")
Please take your other medications as prescribed.
Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician
as listed below.
If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek
emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical
Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur,
please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of

IMAGING
========
CXR ___
Potential left basilar patchy opacity, which may reflect
atelectasis with
infection not excluded, though assessment is limited without a
lateral view.
CXR ___:
In comparison with the study of ___, the there again is
substantial
enlargement of the cardiac silhouette with some improvement in
the degree of pulmonary edema. The right hemidiaphragmatic
contour is more sharply seen, consistent with improving pleural
effusion. Retrocardiac opacification again is consistent with
volume loss in the left lower lobe and pleural fluid.
Round opacification in the left humeral head most likely
represents a benign bone island. If the patient has a condition
associated with sclerotic metastases, further imaging could be
obtained if clinically warranted.
CXR: ___
IMPRESSION:
Interval improvement in the degree of pulmonary vascular
congestion. Stable bilateral pleural effusions.
ECG: ___
Typical atrial flutter with variable conduction and isolated
premature
ventricular contractions versus aberrantly conducted ventricular
complexes.
Underlying right bundle-branch block. Compared to the previous
tracing of
___ the rhythm is more organized and consistent with atrial
flutter.
The ventricular response is controlled.

Brief Hospital Course:
PA andMs. ___ is a ___ woman with PMHx of HFpEF
(TTE ___ EF 65%), afib on apixiban, CKD Stage III, DM, who
initially presented to ___ for lethargy and
SOB, and was subsequently transferred to ___ ICU due to
hypercapnic respiratory failure requiring BiPAP.
# Acute on likely chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure
# Acute HFpEF exacerbation
# Fever, leukocytosis. Severe sepsis with ___
Presented with hypoxia as well as acute on chronic hypercapnia
(pCO2 ___ with pH 7.27-7.28). She has history of elevated HCO3
in outpatient labs suggestive of chronic compensation for
respiratory acidosis. She was trialed on BIPAP in the ICU with
no significant improvement in CO2 retention. There was no clear
cause of chronic respiratory acidosis and she has no known COPD.
She was found to be volume overloaded with likely pneumonia
resulting in hypoxia at time of presentation.
As mental status improved (see below) her VBG improved to a pH
7.37 with pCO2 65,
likely baseline. Some degree of acute respiratory acidosis may
have been related to lethargy/somnolence. TTE was obtained and
was suggestive of right sided heart failure and severe pulmonary
hypertension. This appears new compared to prior TTE from ___
in ___ system. V/Q scan was obtained to evaluate for PE given
new right heart failure but was non-diagnostic (ventilation
images unable to be obtained). Overall PE was felt to be
unlikely given that she is chronically on apixaban and the
elevated pulmonary pressures were likely due at least in part to
volume overload. CXR was unable to rule out pneumonia and she
was febrile at time of admission though this may have been due
to aspiration. She was initially treated with
vanc/cefepime/azithromycin which was narrowed to
ceftriaxone/azithromycin to complete a 5 day course. She was
diuresed with IV lasix boluses. And subsequently transitioned
to oral torsemide. Her volume status was difficult to obtain as
the patient cannot stand for weights. And is incontinent
therefore ins and outs were not well documented. Chest x-rays
and BNP's were followed. Chest x-ray improved and BNP trended
down from ___ on admission to 3821 on the day of discharge.
The patient's creatinine was slightly elevated on discharge
indicating she is likely hypovolemic. With therefore
recommending holding torsemide and repeating chemistry on
___ if creatinine is less than 1 would resume torsemide 20
mg p.o. daily.
#Encephalopathy/Delirium
Presented with lethargy. Likely toxic metabolic in the setting
of respiratory failure and pneumonia. Improved with treatment of
respiratory failure and possible pneumonia as above. The
patient improved and was awake alert and oriented x3 on
discharge she knew the day of the week and was able to do the
months of the year backwards fluently.
# ___ on CKD
Cr 0.8 on last admission to ___ and elevated to 1.3 here.
Likely pre-renal in setting of acute CHF exacerbation. Improved
to baseline with diuresis and then began to rise again
indicating the patient was likely hypovolemic/over diuresed. On
discharge would hold the patient's diuretics repeat creatinine
on ___ and if creatinine is less than 1.1 at that
time start torsemide 20 mg p.o. daily.
# Atrial flutter:
The patient's dose of metoprolol was decreased on admission her
she then developed rapid atrial flutter and her dose of
metoprolol was increased with improved control. Apixiban was
continued for anticoagulation. If the patient has ongoing rapid
rates can consider addition of digoxin versus cardioversion.
The patient has cardiology follow-up arranged on discharge.
# Anemia
Hg at baseline. Low iron saturation suggestive of iron
deficiency Can consider IV iron prior to discharge.
# Elevated INR: INR 3.1 on admission, improved to 2.7 with IV
vitamin K. Does take apixaban. She was started on a PO vitamin K
challenge with 5mg PO X 3 days with decrease in INR to 2.4.
# GOC:
Reviewed with the patient and her nephew. The patient is
DNR/DNI. The patient had been seen by speech-language pathology
during her hospitalization who recommended a modified diet. The
patient and her nephew preferred to allow the patient to eat for
comfort the patient should be on thin liquids with a soft solid
diet
# GERD: continued home omeprazole
# DM
Not on home insulin. Monitored
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
====================
- Please check Chem 7 on ___. If Creatinine is less than 1.1
start Torsemide 20mg daily
- Patient should follow up with cardiology- to be contacted with
appointment
# Code Status: DNR/DNI, ok for NIV

IMAGING:
========
CHEST X-RAY ___:
IMPRESSION:
Right paratracheal mediastinum appears mildly prominent which
could be due to a tortuous aorta, however given history of
recent diagnosis of lymphoma, underlying mediastinal lymph nodes
are not excluded. Nonurgent chest CT would further assess.
CT CHEST WITH CONTRAST ___:
1. No lymphadenopathy within the thorax.
2. No parenchymal consolidation.
3. 5 mm calcification within the right lobe of partially
visualized thyroid gland.
CT ABDOMEN/PELVIS ___:
1. No abnormally enlarged lymph nodes within the imaged abdomen
and pelvis.
2. Top-normal spleen measuring 13.8 cm.
CXR ___:
There has been interval placement of a right PICC with tip seen
overlying the mid SVC. No other change. Lungs remain clear.
FDG/PET ___:
TECHNIQUE: ISOTOPE DATA: (___) 7.0 mCi ___ FDG; LAB DATA:
137 mg/dL
Glucose; CT DLP: 558 mGy-cm. Approximately 1 hour after
intravenous administration of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG),
non-contrast CT images were obtained for attenuation correction
and for fusion with emission PET images. (The non-contrast CT
images are not used to diagnose disease independently of the PET
images.) A series of overlapping emission PET images was then
obtained. The area imaged spanned the region from the skullbase
to the mid thighs.
Computed tomography (CT) images were co-registered and fused
with emission PET images to assist with the anatomic
localization of tracer uptake. The
determination of the site of tracer uptake seen on PET data can
have important implications regarding the significance of that
uptake.
FINDINGS: HEAD/NECK: No abnormal foci of FDG avidity the in the
head or neck. No cervical lymphadenopathy.
CHEST: No abnormal foci of FDG avidity in the chest. There is
no mediastinal, hilar, or axillary lymphadenopathy. A PICC
terminates at the superior cavoatrial junction. Mild dependent
atelectasis. Trace left pleural effusion.
ABDOMEN/PELVIS: 1.7 cm short axis celiac/pyloric lymph nodes and
a 1.2 cm short axis portocaval lymph node demonstrate an SUV max
of 10.64. A 1.2 cm portal caval lymph node and aortocaval lymph
nodes measuring 7 and 8 mm short axis demonstrate an SUV max of
5.5. No mesenteric or pelvic lymphadenopathy. The spleen
demonstrates diffuse FDG avidity with an SUV max of 8.5. The
spleen is enlarged, measuring up to 14.2 cm.
MUSCULOSKELETAL: Diffuse osseous FDG avidity with no focal
lesions identified.
Physiologic uptake is seen in the brain, myocardium, salivary
glands, GI and GU tracts, liver and spleen.
IMPRESSION: FDG avid retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy, FDG avid
splenomegaly, and diffuse osseous FDG avidity are compatible
with lymphoma.
LYMPHOMA WORK-up:
==================
Procedure date Tissue received Report Date Diagnosed
by
___ ___. ___
DIAGNOSIS:
FLOW CYTOMETRY REPORT
FLOW CYTOMETRY IMMUNOPHENOTYPING
The following tests (antibodies) were performed: Kappa, Lambda,
and CD antigens 2,3,4,5,7,8,10,11c,19,20,23,34,38,45,and 56.
RESULTS:
10-color analysis with linear side scatter vs. CD45 gating is
used to evaluate for leukemia/lymphoma.
Approximately 74.0% of total acquired events are evaluable
nondebris event.
The viability of the analyzed non-debris events, done by 7-AAD
is 98.1%.
CD45-bright, low side-scatter gated lymphocytes comprise 19.1%
of total analyzed events.
B cells comprise 17.5% of lymphoid gated events.
B cells demonstrate monoclonal lambda light chain restriction.
They coexpress pan-B cell markers CD19, CD20 and CD23 (subset).
They do not express any other characteristic antigens including
CD5,10,CD38 and 11c.
T cells comprise 59.3% of lymphoid gated events and express
mature lineage antigens (CD3, CD5, CD2, and CD7).
A minor subset (9.17%) of T cells shows dim/variable loss of CD7
(nonspecific finding).
T cells have a normal CD3:CD8 ratio of 2.88 (usual range in
blood 0.7-3.0).
There is a population of double negative (CD4 negative/CD8
negative) T-cells comprise 3.6% of CD3 positive cells.
Approximately 8.5% of CD3 positive T-cells coexpress CD56.
CD56 positive, CD3 negative natural killer cells represent 6.2%
of gated lymphocytes. They coexpress CD2, CD7 and CD8 (subset).
INTERPRETATION
Immunophenotypic findings consistent with involvement by a CD5
negative, CD10 negative B-cell lymphoma. Given the patient's
clinical finding of isolated splenomegaly, Splenic Marginal zone
lymphoma is high in the differential. Correlation with clinical,
imaging,and other ancillary findings is recommended. Flow
cytometry immunophenotyping may not detect all abnormal
populations due to topography, sampling or artifacts of sample
preparation.
SPECIMEN SUBMITTED: Immunophenotyping - bone marrow aspirate

DIAGNOSIS:
FLOW CYTOMETRY REPORT
FLOW CYTOMETRY IMMUNOPHENOTYPING
The following tests (antibodies) were performed: Kappa, Lambda,
___. ___, CD138, and CD antigens
2,3,4,5,7,8,10,11c,13,14,16,19,20,23,33,34,38,45,56,64, and 117.
RESULTS:
10-color analysis with linear side scatter vs. CD45 gating is
used to evaluate for leukemia/lymphoma.
Approximately 85.6% of total acquired events are evaluable
nondebris events.
The viability of the analyzed nondebris events done by 7-AAD is
97.5%.
CD45-bright, low side-scatter gated lymphocytes comprise 15.6%
of total analyzed events.
B cells comprise 30.7% of lymphoid-gated events.
A subset of B cells (60%) demonstrate monoclonal kappa light
chain restriction. They express pan-B cell markers CD20 along
with CD5, CD10 (subset). They do not express CD19 or any other
characteristic antigens including CD23, CD11c and CD38. The
remainder B-cell (approximately 40%)show marked lambda light
chain predominance, they are positive for CD19, CD20 and are
negative for CD5, CD10, CD23, CD38 and CD11c.
CD45 dim, CD19 positive B cell population is identified that
coexpresses CD10 with variable CD20 and absent surface
immunoglobulin, immunophenotypically consistent with hematogones
(0.3%).
T cells comprise 34.9% of lymphoid gated events and express
mature lineage antigens (CD3, CD5, CD2, and CD7).
A minor subset (4.8%) of T cells shows dim/variable loss of CD7
(nonspecific finding).
T cells have a CD4:CD8 ratio of 0.88(usual range in blood
0.7-3.0).
There is a population of double negative (CD4 negative/CD8
negative) T-calls comprise 13% of CD3 positive cells.
Approximately 16.7% of CD3 positive T-cells coexpress CD56.
CD56 positive CD3 negative natural killer cells represent 9.6%
of gated lymphocytes. They coexpress CD2, CD7 and CD8 (subset).
No abnormal events are identified in the "blast gate."
CD34 positive blasts are 0.8% of the total analyzed events.
Plasma cells comprise 0.24% of the total analyzed events, are
polytypic by kappa and lambda cytoplasmic light chain staining.
INTERPRETATION
Immunophenotypic findings consistent with involvement by CD5
positive, kappa restricted B-cell lymphoma. In addition, a
smaller population of lambda predominant, CD5 negative B-cells
were detected. Given the SPEP finding of IgM lambda monoclonal
band, this is suggestive of involvement by a second lymphoma.
Correlation with clinical, morphologic (see separate pathology
___-___) and other ancillary findings is recommended. Flow
cytometry immunophenotyping may not detect all abnormal
populations due to topography, sampling or artifacts of sample
preparation.
Review of the accompanying pathology paperwork indicates
splenomegaly and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. DNA quality was
optimal. Excellent gene coverage was achieved which passed our
internal quality checks.
MLL2 (KMT2D) encodes a histone methyltransferase that methylates
the Lys-4 position of histone H3. MLL2 mutations
are seen commonly in a variety of non-Hodgkin lymphomas
including transformed follicular lymphoma, diffuse large b-cell
lymphomas, and other aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphomas such as
mantle cell lymphoma. MLL2 mutations are also seen
in nodal marginal zone lymphoma. Consideration may be given to
targeted therapies such as hypomethylating agents
and/or HDAC inhibitors, in an investigational context, as
clinically appropriate.
CARD11 protein is a member of the CARD protein family, which is
defined by carrying a characteristic caspaseassociated
recruitment domain (CARD). This protein has a domain structure
similar to that of CARD14 protein. The CARD
domains of both proteins have been shown to specifically
interact with BCL10, a protein known to function as a positive
regulator of cell apoptosis and NF-kappaB activation. When
expressed in cells, this protein activated NF-kappaB and
induced the phosphorylation of BCL10. CARD11 is involved in the
costimulatory signal essential for T-cell receptor (TCR)-
mediated T-cell activation. Its binding to DPP4 induces T-cell
proliferation and NF-kappa-B activation in a T-cell
receptor/CD3-dependent manner. CARD11 mutations have been
described in various B-cell non-hodgkin lymphomas
including follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and diffuse
large b-cell lymphoma.
The FBXW7 encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is
characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid
motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four
subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs
(___), which function in phosphorylation-dependent
ubiquitination. This protein binds directly to cyclin E and
probably targets cyclin E for ubiquitin-mediated degradation.
Mutations in FBXW7 have been described in a variety of
solid tumor and hematologic malignancies including lymphoblastic
leukemia and non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
In summary, this genomic signature suggests an aggressive
clinical course and can be seen in a number of
hematologic malignancies including non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
Therapies are in various stages of clinical
development directed against the identified genomic aberrations,
and may be available as clinically indicated and
appropriate. The signature can further be utilized to monitor
the patient's disease course over time. Complete
interpretation requires clinical correlation with
histomorphologic and other laboratory testing results.

EKG: EKG showed Q waves inferiorly, which were apparently not
new since at least ___. She has a NSR at 90, without other ST
changes.
.
STUDIES:
CXR: The heart is normal in size. The aortic arch is partly
calcified. The lungs are hyperinflated. The mediastinal and
hilar contours are otherwise unremarkable. Slight subpleural
scarring is noted at each lung apex. There is no pleural
effusion or pneumothorax. There is patchy opacity projecting
over the left mid to lower lobe suggesting pneumonia, not well
seen on the lateral view but suspected to reside primarily in
the left lower lobe but perhaps involving the lingula.
Brief Hospital Course:
ACUTE EXACERBATION OF CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE: The
patient presented with dyspnea in the setting of having recently
been treated for pneumonia with antibiotics, but having only
taken one or two doses of steroids. On review of her chest
x-ray with her pulmonologist, Dr. ___ was decided that
she was unlikely to have a recurrent or partially treated
pneumonia, so antibiotics were stopped and she was placed on a
prednisone taper in addition to her usual home medications. Her
dyspnea improved somewhat and by discharge she was closer to,
but not at, her baseline level of dyspnea. She was also started
on theophylline 200 mg PO daily, but this may have caused her to
have several episodes of tachycardia, so it was stopped.
Theophylline levels eventually came back subtherapeutic, making
it perhaps less likely that this drug was responsible. She was
discharged with a nebulizer for levalbuterol treatments to use
as an alternative to her levalbuterol inhalers, since she was
reluctant to only use the nebulizer due to the additional time
involved in treatments.
.
ELEVATED BICARBONATE: The patient's bicarbonate was initially
normal but rose into the mid to high ___. According to Atrius
records, this is near her baeline. It is likely, given her
COPD, that she retains CO2 and has a chronic respiratory
acidosis with metabolic compensation.
.
HYPOTHYROIDISM: Continued home levoxyl.
.
HYPERTENSION: Continued home hydrochlorothiazide.

IMAGING AND REPORTS:
====================
MR ___ W/O CONTRAST ___
1. T9-T11 osteomyelitis and discitis with destruction of
vertebral bodies
resulting in focal kyphotic angulation which in combination with
a posterior
epidural abscess at this level results in severe spinal canal
stenosis and
compression of the spinal cord but without cord signal
abnormality.
2. Inflammatory changes surrounding the T10 and T11 vertebral
bodies with
perispinal and intramuscular abscesses as described above.
3. No evidence of cord compression, severe spinal canal stenosis
or
significant neural foraminal narrowing along the cervical or
lumbar levels.
CT T-SPINE W/O CONTRAST ___
IMPRESSION:
1. 12 rib-bearing vertebrae and 5 non-rib-bearing vertebrae with
partial
sacralization of L5.
2. Discitis/osteomyelitis involving T9 through T11 are again
demonstrated.
Complete fragmentation and destruction of T10 vertebral body and
bilateral
pedicles. Severe loss of height of T9 and T11. Kyphotic
angulation at T9-T10
with multiple bone fragments dorsal to T9-T11. Associated
epidural
phlegmon/abscess and spinal canal narrowing are better assessed
on the
preceding MRI.
3. Well corticated lucency extending into the left T9 posterior
elements and
to the left T8-T9 facet joint, likely sequela of the
osteomyelitis. Well
corticated irregularity of the right T10-T11 facet joint,
unclear whether
secondary to infection or secondary degenerative change.
4. Left T8-T9 and bilateral T9-T10 facet joints are perched.
5. Bilateral paraspinal collection at T9 through T11. A left
paraspinal
collection demonstrates peripheral calcifications which may be
secondary to
underlying sequestrum or underlying calcified lymph node, given
the presence
of other calcified lymph nodes in the visualized abdomen.
6. Multiple calcified mesenteric and retroperitoneal lymph nodes
in the
partially imaged abdomen, suggesting granulomatous disease.
COMMENT:
TB should be considered given involvement of 3 vertebral levels
and calcified
intra-abdominal lymph nodes.
ADDENDUM There is a 15 x 14 mm spiculated nodule with multiple
central
calcifications in the apical left upper lobe, suggesting prior
granulomatous
disease, image 2:19. Adjacent nonspecific 4 mm nodule on image
___ also
be related to prior granulomatous disease. Additional scattered
punctate
calcified pulmonary granulomas are noted in the right lower lobe
on images
2:62, 2:75. There is moderate dependent atelectasis in the
visualized portion
of the lungs.
CHEST (PORTABLE AP) ___
There is no focal consolidation, pleural effusion or
pneumothorax.
Subsegmental atelectasis is noted in the left lower lobe. The
cardiomediastinal silhouette is within normal limits. No acute
osseous
abnormalities are identified. There is partially visualized
posterior spinal
fusion hardware in the lower thoracic and upper lumbar spine.
An expandable
vertebral body cage is seen in the lower thoracic spine.
IMPRESSION:
No pneumonia or acute cardiopulmonary process.
CT ABD & PELVIS WITH CONTRAST ___
1. Discitis osteomyelitis and fractures involving the T10 and
T11 vertebral
bodies with new posterior fixation.
2. Multiple rim enhancing collections are seen in the paraspinal
musculature
likely represent abscesses.
3. 1.4 cm hypodense lesion in the right hepatic lobe is
incompletely
characterized in a single phase CT and visualization is
partially limited by
posterior spinal fusion hardware artifact. While in the context
of this
patient this could represent an abscess, hemangioma is also
possible.
4. Multiple calcified lymph nodes and lymphadenopathy in the
mesentery and
retroperitoneum is likely related to granulomatous disease.
5. Please refer to separately reported chest CT for
intrathoracic findings.
6. Possible thickening of the left adrenal gland.
CT CHEST W/CONTRAST ___
1. Discitis-osteomyelitis centered at T10-T11 vertebral bodies
with fractures
of both vertebrae, and surrounding soft tissue thickening is now
fixated via
T8 through L1 posterior fusion hardware as well as status post
T10-T11
laminectomy.
2. Possible enhancement of the posterior aspect of the thecal
sac is not well
characterized on this study. Partially seen epidural catheter.
3. Multiple rim enhancing collections in the posterior
mediastinum bilaterally
are concerning for abscesses.
4. 1.4 cm spiculated calcified nodule in the left apex of the
lung small
calcified hilar lymph nodes are likely related to granulomatous
disease.
5. Bibasilar atelectasis.
6. Please refer to separately reported abdominopelvic CT
performed at the same
time for subdiaphragmatic findings.
LIVER OR GALLBLADDER US (SINGLE ORGAN) ___
1. 1.5 cm right hepatic hemangioma corresponds to lesion seen on
prior CT.
2. Re-demonstrated are multiple calcified lymph nodes in the
peripancreatic
and perihepatic space.
3. A tiny hypoechoic area in the gallbladder wall measuring up
to 6 mm is
nonspecific, but may represent focal adenomyomatosis.
T-SPINE ___
Patient is status post corpectomy in the lower thoracic spine at
approximately
T9-T11 level with a vertebral body spacing device in-situ.
Endplate
destruction of these vertebrae is unchanged compared to the
prior CT study.
Overall alignment is unchanged. No fracture seen. No new areas
of endplate
destruction appreciated.
IMPRESSION:
Postoperative changes as described, no significant interval
change when
compared to the prior CT study.
LIVER OR GALLBLADDER US (SINGLE ORGAN) ___
1. Multiple echogenic hepatic lesions are compatible with
hemangiomas. No
sign of abscess is identified.
2. Multiple enlarged, heterogeneous periportal and
peripancreatic lymph nodes
are re-demonstrated.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ with no PMHx, transferred from ___ after
MRI revealed marked thoracic cord compression ___ vertebral
abscess/discitis/osteomyelitis s/p T9-11 corpectomy with T7-L1
fusion, started on RIPE therapy ___ for presumed spinal TB
which was
confirmed by PCR and positive QGold.
ACUTE/ACTIVE ISSUES:
====================
# Spinal TB
# T9-11 discitis and osteomyelitis
# s/p T9-T11 corpectomy with T7-L1 fusion
# Pain
Patient with no known IVDU initially presented to OSH with 5
days of
LBP and associated b/l ___ numbness/tingling/weakness. No fevers,
bowel or bladder dysfunction. MRI imaging revealed significant
thoracic cord compression iso epidural/paraspinal/intramuscular
abscess, discitis, and spondylitis of unclear etiology. Also
noted to
have bilateral paraspinal rim-enhancing abscesses. He was
transferred to ___ where he was started on empiric antibiotics
and underwent T9-T11 corpectomy through with T7-L1 posterior
instrumented fusion on ___. There was high suspicion for TB
spondylodiscitis (Potts disease) given involvement of multiple
vertebrae, calcified LNs and pulmonary nodule. He was started on
Rifampin, Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol, Pyridoxine on
___. Antibiotics were stopped on ___. MTB PCR from vertebral
abscess was positive confirming TB. Pain was controlled with
lidocaine patch and oxycodone. Ortho-spine recommended avoiding
NSAIDS until f/u. Acetaminophen was discontinued per ID
recommendation due to c/f hepatotoxicity with RIPE. He will need
to continue RIPE regimen for two months and will continue on
isoniazide and rifampin after. Tentative course of ___ months.
He should also get a f/u CT chest in 6 months to reassess rim
enhancing lesions.
#Transaminitis

disorder, PTSD, & polysubstance use disorder who initially
presented after an overdose after having taken crack cocaine,
heroin, and clonidine. He received one dose of naloxone and bag
valve mask respirations in the field with good response in his
mental status. Subsequently required two doses of naloxone here
in ED. He was found to have mildly elevated troponin to 0.02,
which down-trended to 0.01. ECG was difficult to interpret given
LVH, but had low suspicion for ischemia as he remained CP free
throughout. Suspect that he may have had transient vasospasm
from recent cocaine use. Social work was consulted, and placed
him on a waitlist for an intensive outpatient addiction
treatment program at ___.

hip fracture
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
PROCEDURE:
1. Open biopsy with intraoperative frozen.
2. Proximal femoral replacement.
Name: ___ ___ No: ___
Service: Date: ___
Date of Birth: ___ Sex: F
Surgeon: ___, ___
ASSISTANTS: ___, MD
PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Pathologic subtrochanteric fracture
of the left hip.
POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSES: Pathologic subtrochanteric fracture
of the left hip.
PROCEDURE:
1. Open biopsy with intraoperative frozen.
2. Proximal femoral replacement.
INDICATIONS FOR PROCEDURE: The patient is a ___
female patient with history of diabetes mellitus type 2,
sickle cell trait, and history of left-sided renal cell
carcinoma treated with left nephrectomy. The patient
sustained a mechanical fall without any loss of consciousness
with subsequent inability to ambulate and move. She was
initially seen at ___, and then she was
transferred to ___ for further care. She was evaluated
recently by Dr. ___ on ___, for left hip
pain in the Urgent Well Clinic and was discharged home with a
walker with a pending MRI that was not done. The patient
presented with a fracture, and I saw her for open biopsy and
treatment of her injury. Informed consent was obtained in
the inpatient setting. Discussed risks and benefits
including intraoperative bleeding, neurovascular damage,
change in histological diagnosis, need for further surgery,
and limb discrepancy, as well as rotational deformities.
DETAILS OF PROCEDURE: The patient was taken to the operating
room and placed in the supine position on ___ table. She
was induced under general anesthesia in the standard manner,
and her airway was managed with an endotracheal tube.
Subsequently, the patient was placed in the lateral position.
The patient had compression boots during induction and in the
right lower extremity during the surgery. The patient was
positioned then in the lateral decubitus with assistance of a
beanbag. All the bony prominences were adequately padded,
and axillary roll was put in place. The patient was prepped
and draped in the usual manner with ChloraPrep, and a timeout
was performed to confirm the patient's identity, laterality,
and procedure to be performed. The patient received
preoperative antibiotics Ancef 2 g.
Longitudinal incision following the lateral approach to the
thigh and posterolateral to the hip was performed with a 10-
size scalpel. Subsequent to that, the subcutaneous tissues
were dissected with electrocautery down to fascia. The
fascia was dissected longitudinally. Once the fascia was
exposed, the gluteus medius was excised from the proximal
femur in continuity with the vastus lateralis. We developed
anterior and posterior flap also removing the external
rotators, including the piriformis which was tagged with
a #2 Ethibond stitch. All the portions of the psoas iliacus
muscle and the gluteus minimus were also removed. The
capsule was identified and was T'd in a reversed fashion. The
horizontal tip of the T was down to acetabulum. The capsule
was repaired with multiple 2 Ethibond stitches for subsequent
repair. After the proximal fragment was completely freed, it
was resected after removing the ligamentum teres. After
this, we removed all other parts of remaining bone. We took
some samples that we sent for frozen, and these confirmed to
be a metastatic epithelioid carcinoma. After this, we
identified the distal portion of the femur and then dissected
further down the vastus lateralis from the fascia down to the
linea aspera. Once we exposed a good portion of the bone, we
resected an additional 3 cm and then we proceeded to ream
with rigid reamers up to size 15 for cemented stem size 13.
The femoral head measured size 48, and we used the trials
using a standard body with a 30 mm insert and a standard stem
13 x ___. With these, we obtained adequate length and
adequate stability of the hip. This was tested in knee
flexion, internal and external rotation, rotational
positioning, and length of extremity. Subsequent to this, we
cleaned the femur, used a cement restrictor, and cleaned it
with pulse lavage. We mixed 2 bags of cement without
antibiotics, and after using the facing reamer, we inserted
the stem with the whole body of the prosthesis assembled.
The prosthesis was inserted without any difficulty after
cementation. We confirmed adequate position and anteversion.
Subsequently, after trialing again, we used a zero head 28
bipolar 48 mm. Subsequent to this, we obtained hemostasis,
and subsequently we closed by planes, first the capsule and
the attachments of the gluteus medius and vastus lateralis to
the external rotators and posterior structures of the
proximal hip. Subsequently, we closed with #1 Vicryl at the
fascia and then subcutaneous tissues in a deep layer also
with 0 Vicryl and superficial with ___ Vicryl. Skin was
closed with staples. A sterile dressing with Xeroform, 4 x
4's, ABDs, and Tegaderms was applied. There were no
complications during the case. No drains were left in place,
as the surgical field was very dry.
ESTIMATED BLOOD LOSS: 700 cc.
INTRAVENOUS FLUIDS: 2 units of blood and 1500 cc of
crystalloid.
URINARY OUTPUT: 300 cc.
COMPLICATIONS: There were no complications during the case.
IMPLANTS: A ___ proximal femoral replacement GMRS with
stem 13 x ___, interbody 30 mm, standard body head 28 bipolar
x 48.
Intraoperative x-rays demonstrated adequate placement of the
stem. The patient was extubated without any difficulty and
subsequently transferred to recovery. The patient is going
to be weightbearing as tolerated postoperative day 1,
preoperative antibiotics for 24 hours, DVT prophylaxis with
40 mg of Lovenox given her renal function and only working
kidney.
History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ with history of DM type II, L-sided RCC s/p
L nephrectomy, asthma, OSA, dCHF and rheumatoid arthritis with
L-hip fracture s/p proximal femur replacement today with
estimated blood loss of 1L with hypotension.
Patient presented to ___ after falling backward onto her
left hip with resultant left proximal femur fracture and was
subsequently transferred to ___ for further care.
She is now status post proximal left femur replacement today
with estimated blood loss of 1L in the OR. She is status post 2
packs of pRBC and approximlatey 3L of NS between the OR and the
PACU and continues to be tachycardic to the 110s and systolic
pressures flucating between the ___ and is transfered to
the FICU for further management.
In the OR her pressures were between ___ to 110s/60s. Her
baseline pressures seems to be 120-140s/40-60s though that seems
to be her pressures while her antihypertensives were ___
yesterday and today she had most of her antihypertensives this
morning including her Carvediolol, HCTZ and Valsartan.
On arrival to the FICU she is awake and answering questions
easily and only complains of pain in the left hip, especially
when people are moving her.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
It was a pleasure being a part of your care team at ___
___. You were admitted to the hospital
because of a hip fracture. We did surgery to fix your hip. You
had to stay in the ICU for a few days because your blood
pressure was low and you needed to receive some extra blood.
After you were doing better you were able to come to the regular
medicine floor, where you continued to do well.
We are very sorry to tell you that the fracture is from the
kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma) that you had a long time
ago. We were happy to meet with you and your family to discuss
the next steps, which will involve seeing orthopedic surgery,
radiation oncology, and medical oncology to discuss treatment
options. Please see below for your follow-up appointment
information and changes that we have made to your medications.
You should not take your methotrexate until you speak with the
orthopedic surgeons next week. They will tell you when to
restart it.
Again, we are very sorry to have to give you this news, and we
wish you the best.
Sincerely,
Your ___ Care Team

Chief Complaint:
Left eye blurry vision
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None.
History of Present Illness:
HPI: The patient is a ___ year old woman with PMH significant for
previous MVA s/p multiple back surgeries and residual left leg
numbness who presents with 1 day of left eye blurriness. The
blurriness began all of a sudden while she was walking back into
the school building after being outside during recess. She notes
that for about 30 minutes prior to the blurry vision onset, she
was unable to see while standing in the sun and required
sunglasses or standing in the shade in order to see normally.
Once the blurry vision began, it did not improve of worsen, but
has remained constant since yesterday afternoon. She has been
able to localize it to the left eye only, she feels the vision
in
the right eye is at baseline. There was no sensation of a
curtain
over the vision, loss of visual field, scintillations, bright
spots or colors, or black spots. While she initially described
this as "double vision," she is clear that she has never seen
two
overlapping images, that objects in her view appear blurred or
smeared, sometimes with streaks, and this is more pronounced
with
objects in the distance or when looking at lights. She describes
her vision as being like she is looking from underwater.
She also notes a pressure-like sensation in the left side of her
face and head that began several minutes after the blurry vision
started. This has since progressed to an intermittent stabbing
and squeezing pains in the back left side of her head. She notes
a minor head injury 1.5 weeks ago in which she hit her head
against the corner of a dresser and developed a large bruise on
the head without skin breakage or LOC.
Five hours after the onset of blurry vision, she presented to an
outside ED where CTA head/neck was performed, but the study was
limited. Given inability to rule out small aneurysm, she was
transferred to BID for further evaluation.
On neurologic review of systems, the patient denies headache,
lightheadedness, or confusion. Denies difficulty with producing
or comprehending speech. Denies loss of vision, blurred vision,
diplopia, vertigo, tinnitus, hearing difficulty, dysarthria, or
dysphagia. Denies focal muscle weakness. Denies bowel or bladder
incontinence or retention. Denies difficulty with gait.
On general review of systems, the patient denies fevers, chest
pain, palpitations, cough, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea,
constipation, abdominal pain, dysuria or rash.

IMAGING:
OSH CTA H and N: There is no intracranial hemorrhage. No focal
abnormality is seen within the brain. The ventricles are normal
in size and configuration. The paranasal and mastoid sinuses are
clear. The bony calvarium appears intact. The neck, the common
carotid, internal carotid, external carotid and vertebral
arteries are patent with no dissection, aneurysm or stenosis.
No enlarged lymph nodes are seen.
Intracranially, there is prominent venous contamination,
problematic at the cavernous portions of the internal carotid
arteries with respect to potential small aneurysms in this
location. No large aneurysm is seen. There is a prominent
infundibulum of the right posterior communicating artery
measuring 1.5 mm -1.8 in diameter tapering gradually to a normal
caliber posterior communicating artery. Venous contamination at
both cavernous sinuses limits evaluation for potential small
cavernous portion aneurysms. The supraclinoid intracranial
internal carotid arteries, middle and anterior cerebral arteries
are unremarkable. No aneurysm seen elsewhere. The
ertebrobasilar system is unremarkable within the brain. There
is
no intracranial stenosis or dissection.
___ Imaging:
CTA H and N (___) :
1. No infarction, hemorrhage, edema, or mass lesion.
2. 2 mm focal outpouching arising from the cavernous portion of
the left
internal carotid artery, which may represent a small aneurysm.
MRI Brain w/out contrast (___):
No acute infarction and no evidence for other acute intracranial
abnormalities.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ was admitted for acute symptoms of blurry vision in
the left eye with associated sharp head and neck pain. that
started several minutes after visual symptoms began. Due to the
abrupt onset, she was admitted for a stroke work up. Initially
CTA imaging was done and it showed a small 2mm out-pouching of
the ICA in the cavernous section of the brain. Neurosurgery was
consulted for their expertise and it was not felt that
intervention was needed given the location, appearance, and size
of the outpouching. Also finding is incidental and is not linked
to the patient's abrupt visual symptoms or head and neck pain.
Likely, the patient was suffering from migraine with aura
(complicated migraine) with neurologic symptoms (decrease in
visual acuity) that will return to baseline once headache has
improved.
As migraine treatment, we recommended alternating Tylenol with
ibuprofen and using anti emetics. We counseled the patient to
consider changing her combined OCP to a progesterone-only pill
or to discuss other contraception options with her outpatient
provider.
Ms. ___ did not have any significant neurologic deficits on
the discharge day except for mild left eye blurry vision ___
visual acuity) that had improved since admission.
In terms of the outpouching of the cavernous portion of the ICA,
the patient will have repeat MRA imaging of her head and neck in
one year to evaluate the size. Ms. ___ will follow up with
the neurology stroke Attending as well in 3 months.
Ms. ___ was discharged home.
TRANSITIONS OF CARE ISSUES:
1. Follow-up with primary care provider ___ ___ weeks.
2. Follow-up with Dr. ___ Neurologist and
call his office to schedule your appointment (___)
3. Please discuss whether you would like to consider changing
your contraceptive pill to a progesterone-only pill or other
options depending on your needs with your prescriber.
4. You will need to have an MRA brain and neck completed in ___
year to evaluate size of the outpouching (which is currently
stable and at a small size) .
Medications on Admission:
The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete.
1. Enpresse (levonorg-eth estrad triphasic) ___ (6)/75-40

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___, you presented with blurry vision in your left
eye. You were admitted to the hospital for evaluation of a
possible stroke which was found to be negative on imaging.
Incidentally, when imaging your vessels, a small possible 2mm
outpouching was found on the internal carotid artery. This will
be monitored and you will have repeat imaging in ___ year to
ensure the size is stable. You will also follow-up with the
stroke physician ___ ___ months.
Likely, your symptoms can be explained by a migraine headache
with neurologic features also called migraine with aura.

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old male with history of COPD, CAD,
PE
and DVT who presents with a headache. He says that he developed
an acute onset headache about two weeks ago. He says that he
does
not remember exactly what he was doing when it started. He says
that he had some cough and congestion, and he was blowing his
nose a lot. He denies any trauma or neck manipulation. He says
that the headache was left sided, characterized by pressure. He
says that it sometimes radiates to his teeth. He says that he
has
been nauseated but not had vomiting. He denies photophobia and
phonophobia. He was seen by his PCP who prescribed amoxicillin
out of concern for sinusitis. However, the headache continued
unabated. About one week ago, his wife also noted that his left
eyelid was droopy. He denies a positional component to the
headache. He has had migraine headaches in the past but not had
them for several years. He says that this headache does not feel
like a migraine. Given the lack of improvement in the headache
with antibiotics, he went to an OSH today, where a CT scan
demonstrated findings concerning for a subarachnoid hemorrhage.
He received vitamin K to reverse his Coumadin.
Mr. ___ underwent cardiac catheterization in ___, and he
had two stents placed in ___. He was also found to have small
pulmonary emboli. He was initially on Plavix, but he then
developed swelling of the foot and was found to have a DVT. He
was switched to Coumadin, and he has been on Coumadin ever
since.
He does not think that he has ever been worked up for
hypercoaguability.
He states that he has occasional dizziness, but denies loss of
vision, blurred vision, diplopia, dysarthria, dysphagia,
tinnitus
or hearing difficulty. Denies difficulties producing or
comprehending speech. Denies focal weakness, numbness,
parasthesiae. General review of systems is notable for the viral
symptoms that he had reported that have since resolved.

IMAGING:
CT head ___ (OSH, ___ opinion here):
IMPRESSION:
1. Small caliber of the visualized distal cervical left internal
carotid
artery with severe narrowing at the skullbase and of the
horizontal petrous segment, and slight narrowing of the
remaining petrous, cavernous, and supraclinoid segments. These
findings are suspicious for dissection.
2. Increased number of small blood vessels in the region of the
previously
demonstrated left parietal subarachnoid hemorrhage. This may
represent
reactive hyperemia, but a developmental venous anomaly, or a
subtle
arteriovenous malformation or fistula, cannot be excluded on the
basis of this exam.
3. No evidence for an intracranial aneurysm, allowing for
absence of 3D volume rendered images on this exam from BID
___.
4. No evidence for dural venous sinus thrombosis.
5. Fluid, secretions, and mucosal thickening in the paranasal
sinuses could be related to prolonged supine positioning or
active sinus disease. Please correlate with symptoms.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
1. Neck MRA with fat-suppressed axial T1 weighted images is
recommended to
assess for cervical left internal carotid artery dissection. Of
note, this has already been performed at the time of final
interpretation.
2. Conventional cerebral angiogram should be considered to
exclude a subtle arteriovenous malformation or fistula in the
region of the left parietal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
MRI/MRA brain ___:
IMPRESSION:
1. Small focus of left parietal subarachnoid hemorrhage is again
demonstrated. No evidence for amyloid angiopathy is seen. No
clear evidence for a cavernous malformation is demonstrated.
Please refer to the preceding head CTA report for further
observation and recommendations.
2. Dissection of the distal cervical left internal carotid
artery at the
skullbase and of the horizontal portion of the petrous segment
with acute to subacute thrombus. Other portions of the left
internal carotid artery are small in caliber compared to the
right, which may reflect diminished flow secondary to the
dissection, but chronic dissection of the more proximal cervical
internal carotid artery cannot be excluded.
3. Otherwise, neck MRA is technically limited due to poor timing
and motion artifact.
4. The motion limited MRA of the brain demonstrates no evidence
for an
aneurysm larger than 3 mm, concordant with the preceding head
CTA.
5. No evidence of major dural venous sinus thrombosis.
6. Fluid and secretions in the paranasal sinuses may be
secondary to prolonged supine positioning in the inpatient
setting versus active sinusitis. Please correlate with
symptoms.
CXR 2v ___:
FINDINGS:
Lungs are relatively hyperinflated and there is relative lucency
projecting over the right upper lung with changes in the
underlying parenchyma raising the possibility of emphysema.
There is also left apical scarring. There is no focal
consolidation or edema. Moderate-sized hiatal hernia is noted.
No acute osseous abnormalities. Right shoulder arthroplasty
changes are noted.
IMPRESSION:
Hiatal hernia and findings suggestive of emphysema. No acute
cardiopulmonary process.
CT head noncontrast ___:
IMPRESSION:
1. Stable small left parietal subarachnoid hemorrhage. No new
hemorrhage.
2. Fluid and secretions in the paranasal sinuses may relate to
prolonged
supine positioning in the inpatient setting or active sinus
disease. Please correlate with symptoms.
Brief Hospital Course:
Patient is a ___ year old male with history of CAD and PE/DVT on
coumadin who presented with a headache and ptosis, subsequently
found on CT with L ICA dissection and a small convexal left
parietal SAH. He had no risk factors for dissection with
exception of possible valsalva/sneezing. He has no physical exam
findings to suggest a collagen vascular disorder. His imaging
does not support fibromuscular dysplasia. His family history
does not suggest a collagen vascular disorder.
The CTA brain ___ opinion report mentioned concern regarding an
"Increased number of small blood vessels in the region of the
previously demonstrated left parietal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
This may represent reactive hyperemia, but a developmental
venous anomaly, or a subtle arteriovenous malformation or
fistula, cannot be excluded on the basis of this exam. No
evidence for an intracranial aneurysm, allowing for absence of
3D volume rendered images on this exam from ___
MRI brain/MRA brain showed no evidence of an AVM or amyloid
angiopathy. Neurosurgery (Dr. ___ was consulted for
possibility of performing angiography to rule out arteriovenous
malformation, dural AV fistula, or aneurysm, but he thought that
these were highly unlikely to be present and that the risks of
the procedure outweighed the benefits. In the final analysis,
the small left parietal SAH appeared likely spontaneous, in
setting of anticoagulation.
Dr. ___ discussed with his cardiologist who had been treating
Mr. ___ with Coumadin for the DVT and PE. The cardiologist
confirmed that the DVT and PE occurred more than one year ago.
Given the risks and benefits, his cardiologist was in agreement
with not resuming the Coumadin. His Coumadin was stopped and he
was placed on aspirin 81mg. He was treated with SBP goal <160,
and he was continued on his home lasix and lisinopril. His
headache was controlled with fioricet and compazine and he was
arranged for a follow up MRI in ___s follow up in
Stroke clinic.
Transitional issues:
[ ] Coumadin was stopped and aspirin 81mg was started for
cardiovascular prevention in setting of admission with
subarachnoid hemorrhage. If felt that his risk of DVT/PE is high
enough or he experiences recurrence, please consider
consultation for placement of IVC filter.
[ ] Please follow up repeat MRI head brain without contrast/ MRA
brain without contrast/MRA neck w/wo contrast to assess for
resolution of SAH and carotid dissection.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were admitted for headache and left eyelid droop. We found
that you had a small area of hemorrhage in your brain, as well
as a small tear in one of the blood vessels in your neck. We
thought that the conclusion that these were not related and
likely incidental, but both were probably contributing to your
headache. To ensure that the hemorrhage and the vessel tear
resolve, you will need a repeat brain and neck MRI in 3 months,
for which you will be contacted to arrange.
For treatment, we stopped your Coumadin due to the increased
risk of further bleeding, and we started aspirin to treat the
blood vessel tear. You should take aspirin 81mg indefinitely.
You may continue to take analgesic medications for the headache,
and try to wean off this when tolerable. Drink plenty of fluids.
Your symptoms are expected to slowly improve over the next few
weeks. If your headache significantly worsens OR you develop new
neurologic symptoms (listed below in danger signs), please seek
medical attention.
It was a pleasure taking care of you. We wish you the best.
Sincerely,
Your ___ Care Team

cavity size with extensive regional systolic dysfunction most
c/w multivessel CAD or other diffuse process. Moderate to severe
mitral regurgitation. Mild pulmonary artery systolic
hypertension.
Cardiac Catheterization ___:
Dominance: Right
LMCA: 25% ostial plaque. There was some dampening of the
pressure waveform as the JL-3.5 catheter did not sit coaxially
in the LMCA.
LAD: proximal and mid LAD were calcified. The proximal LAD had
mild plaquing and supplied a very high large ___ diagonal branch
followed by very large, branching ___ septal. The LAD tapered
abruptly after S1 into a tubular partially recanalized total
occlusion; the distal and mid LAD filled retrogradely back from
the apex via left-to-left collaterals. The long D1 was diffusely

AM/RV branch. The mid RCA had an 80% stenosis after the larger
tortuous ___ AM/RV branch. The distal RCA had a tubular 75%
stenosis. The RPDA had diffuse mild plaquing. RPL1 was a modest
caliber vessel arising just before RPL2. RPL2 was a large and
long vessel. The distal AV groove RCA terminated abruptly after
RPL3 and a nodal branch, suggestive of a stump total occlusion.
Pulmonary Function Tests ___
MECHANICS: The FVC and FEV1/FVC ratio are moderately reduced.
The FEV1 is severely reduced.
FLOW-VOLUME LOOP: Severely reduced flows overall with a
moderately reduced volume and mild expiratory coving.

are elevated.
DLCO: The diffusing capacity corrected for hemoglobin is mildly
to moderately reduced.
Impression:
Severe obstructive ventilatory defect with evidence of gas
trapping. The reduced DLCO suggests an emphysematous process.
There are no prior studies available for comparison.
Chest CT ___
Very proximal ascending aorta and aortic arch are heavily
affected by
calcifications with sparing of the distal ascending aorta.
Multiple nodules versus multifocal infectious process.
Reassessment of the

shunt across the interatrial septum is seen at rest. There are
simple atheroma in the aortic arch. There are complex (mobile)
atheroma in the descending aorta. There are complex (>4mm)
atheroma in the abdominal aorta. The LV is markedly dilated with
preserved function only at the base. EF is ___. Takotsubo
appearance. An apical clot cannot be excluded. RV function is
preserved. The aortic valve leaflets are moderately thickened.

The patient is on high doses of inotropes. LV is severely
depressed. There is a mitral prosthesis with no leak and no MR.
___ intact.
Transthoracic Echocardiogram ___
The left atrium is mildly dilated. There is moderate to severe
regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with akinesis of
the inferior wall, distal septum and apex. The mid septum is
hypokinetic as is the distal anterior wall. There is an apical
left ventricular aneurysm. The remaining segments contract

small with normal free wall contractility. The aortic valve
leaflets are mildly thickened (?#). There is no aortic valve
stenosis. Mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. A
bioprosthetic mitral valve prosthesis is present. The mitral
prosthesis appears well seated, with normal leaflet/disc motion
and transvalvular gradients. No mitral regurgitation is seen.
The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal.
There is a gradient across the RVOT likley due to the small size
of the right ventricle with normal to hyperdynamic systolic
function. There is no pericardial effusion.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___ a
bioprosthetic mitral valve is in place and is functioning
normally. An RVOT gradient is seen. Mild differences in regional
left ventricular systolic dysfunction may be due to abnormal
septal motion post-CABG.
Transthoracic Echocardiogram ___
A 1.2x1.7 cm echobright, somewhat mobile, round mass is seen in
the left atrium (actual attachment not clearly defined, but
appears to be the posterior left atrial wall), which may
represent thrombus vs. other type of mass (it is not in location
for warfarin ridge). There is severe regional left ventricular
systolic dysfunction with severe hypokinesis of the anteroseptum
and anterior wall and distal left ventricle, and akinesis of the
basal-mid inferior wall. The remaining segments contract
normally (LVEF = ___ %). There is an apical left ventricular
aneurysm with a 1.0x0.8 cm spherical mass of moderate echo
density within the aneurysm, typical in appearance for thrombus.
The mass is mildly mobile within the aneurysm. Right ventricular
chamber size is normal with borderline free wall hypokinesis.

two echodensities in the left atrium and left ventricle are
identified ___ was seen in prior TTE; imaging was
insufficient to evaluate LV aneurysm in that study). ___
was not appreciated on the ___ or ___ TTE, but the echodensity
within the LV aneurysm was seen on review of ___ TTE.
A very small pericardial effusion is also now seen. The mitral
valve gradient is elevated, but at an elevated heart rate (vs

subclavian and axillary veins as well as in the left subclavian
and axillary veins.
Hyperdense and loculated retro and sub cardiac pericardial
effusion measuring 20 mm in the craniocaudal plane as described
above, suggestive of complex fluid from hemorrhage and less
likely infection. Further investigation with cardiac echo
advised. Left ventricular apical thrombus.
Large loculated left-sided pleural effusion. Multifocal
peribronchiolar nodular airspace opacification may be in keeping
with early infection.
Focused Transthoracic Echocardiogram ___

Brief Hospital Course:
Presented with acute respiratory failure with hypoxemia in acute
systolic heart failure on bipap. She was give diuretics and
underwent evaluation including cardiac catheterization that
revealed coronary artery disease, echocardiogram that revealed
mitral regurgitation and cardiac surgery was consulted. She was
managed medically from admisision until ___ when she was taken
to the operating room for coronary artery bypass graft and
mitral valve replacement which was a complicated OR case. Please
defer to operative report for further details. Post operatively
she was taken to the intensive care unit for management on
multiple pressors and inotropes. She had a prolonged recovery
and is being discharged to rehab on post operative day forty.
Acute encephalopathy felt to be multifactorial related to
metabolic abnormalities and medications. Her medications have
been adjusted and she continues to do well on Seroquel for
sleep. She is awake and interactive
Thrombocytopenia which was due to pump run and bleeding. HITT
was checked ___ which was negative. However she dropped her
platelets again with new clot noted in the subclavian bilateral
and right internal jugular that was new even though she was on
anticoagulation. Hematology was consulted, she was changed to
argatroban. Repeat HITT ___ was negative and based on
hematology evaluation they ruled her out for HITT. Her
platelets have trended back up and have been stable.
CT scan ___ revealed Extensive deep venous thrombosis in the
right internal jugular vein surrounding the catheter and
bilateral subclavian veins, Patchy nodular opacities in the
inferior left upper lobe new from ___, and suspicious for
infection.Severe centrilobular emphysema. Bilateral pleural
effusions, small on the right, and loculated on the left, also
new.New small/moderate hyperdense pericardial effusion,
consistent with complex fluid such as blood. Multiple
mediastinal lymph nodes, the largest measuring up to 13 mm in
the right lower paratracheal station likely reactive.
She had lower and upper extremities ultrasounds which did not
reveal any other areas of clots and she remains on
anticoagulation.
Anemia Acute blood loss and acute illness and potential for
chronic disease however due to multiple transfusions unable to
check Iron studies at this time would recommend considering in
the future. She received multiple transfusions however has
remained stable with last transfusion ___ with hemodialysis.
Acute Renal failure with potential chronic kidney disease as
preoperatively mild increase in creatinine but no data available
prior to admission. She was noted for acute kidney injury prior
to surgery in combination with diuresis. Post operatively it
was monitored but then she became anuric with significant volume
overload. Renal was consulted and was started on CRRT ___.
She continued on CRRT with volume removal and also to correct
metabolic acidosis related to renal failure. On ___ she had
tunnel line placed and was transitoned to hemodialysis. At this
time her kidneys are recovering and she is diuresing on her own
but then became oliguric and restarted HD with last dialysis
___
Leukocytosis with no clear etiology. She had fevers and was pan
cultured multiple times. Infectious disease was consulted and
based on no positive cultures and no indications from scan of
infection she completed 14 course of cefepime and vanomycin for
assumed ventilator pneumonia however sputum was only positive
for yeast. After antibiotics stopped white blood cell
progressively trended down. Then it increased and urine culture
revealed Klebsiella sensitive to cipro placed on ___ompletes ___.
Acute on Chronic respiratory failure with acute pulomonary
edema, pleural effusion, and chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease which she was still smoking up until admission.
Preoperatively she required bipap due to the severity of hypoxia
until she was diuresed. Post operatively she has remained on
the ventilator and attempts to wean complicated by pleural
effusions. Left chest tube placed ___ and right pigtail ___.
Volume removal also with CRRT. She had bronchoscopy ___ that
showed very inflamed airways but no evidence of infection. She
continues to be weaned from the ventilator and attempts for
trach collar. At the time of discharge she is on ___ 40% TV in
mid ___ on CPAP to rest and tolerating trach collar for ___
minutes once a day
She initially presented to the hospital in acute systolic heart
failure with biventricular failure. She was managed medically
but valve disease and coronary disease were contributing. After
her surgery she required multiple pressors and inotropes
including levophed, milirone, epinephrine, neosynephrine and
vasopressin for support. Over multiple days they were weaned
down but she required them for an extended period post
operatively. She had multiple echocardiograms and was weaned
off all drips except levophed for blood pressure support. Due
to pressor requirement she was started on midodrine and was not
able to tolerate ace inhibitor and contraindicated due to acute
kidney injury. On echocardiogram ___ EF was estimated at 35%.
Pericardial effusion noted on echocardiogram with no evidence of
tamponade last echocardiogram ___ and no increase in size, no
intervention indicated at this time.
Hyponatremia which has been multifactorial including related to
vasopressin. In additional renal and volume status at this time
minimizing free water and monitoring. Has remained stable at
130-132.
Atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rates treated with
amiodarone initially as due to pressor requirement would not
tolerate betablockers. She was additionally treated with
digoxin however due to acute kidney injury it was stopped. As
she remained off of pressors betablockers were added and she
remains currently in sinus rhythm She continues on Coumadin for
anticoagulation
Due to respiratory failure requiring tracheostomy a PEG was
placed for nutritional support. High residuals were noted and a
KUB was done. It revealed nonspecific, nonobstructive bowel gas
pattern favoring ileus. She was placed on reglan and should
continue for gastric motility and is tolerating tube feeds noted
for mild Amylase and lipase elevation with no abdominal
discomfort.
She remains stable with very slow progression. She was cleared
for discharge to rehab at ___.

Brief Hospital Course:
Following cardiac catheterization, Mr. ___ was admitted and
underwent surgical work-up. On the following day he was brought
to the operating room where he underwent an urgent coronary
artery bypass graft x4:Left internal mammary artery to left
anterior descending artery; and saphenous vein grafts to
diagonal #1, diagonal #2, and obtuse marginal arteries. Please
see operative note for surgical details. Following surgery he
was transferred to the CVICU for invasive monitoring in stable
condition. POD 1 found the patient extubated, alert and oriented
and breathing comfortably. Intra-aortic balloon pump was removed
on POD1 without complication and with subsequent stable
hemodynamics. The patient was neurologically intact and
hemodynamically stable on no inotropic or vasopressor support.
Left lower extremity JP drain was pulled with minimal drainage.
Chest tubes were removed per cardiac surgery protocol with no
pneumothorax on post pull CXR. Beta blocker was initiated and
the patient was gently diuresed toward the preoperative weight.
The patient was transferred to the telemetry floor for further
recovery. Patient went into rapid atrial fibrillation on POD #1,
which was difficult to rate control and delayed his dischage for
several days. He was given IV beta blockers, a diltiazem drip
and amiodarone bolus and drip. EP was consulted for further
assistance (___). He was rate controlled at the time of
discharge, on amiodarone, diltiazem, and lopressor, with
accepting resting HR of 110. Per EP recommendations, he will
taper amiodarone on ___ to 200mg po daily. Coumadin was
initiated with goal INR ___. Pacing wires were discontinued
without complication. The patient was evaluated by the physical
therapy service for assistance with strength and mobility. A
Left arm, double lumen, power-PICC line (46cm) was placed on
___ due to poor peripheral IV access. His foley catheter
was replaced once postoperatively, but he then voided without
troubles following second removal. Urine culture sent ___
grew Serratia marcescens, and he will have 3 day course of
Ciprofloxacin 500mg po BID, starting ___. He has no complaints
of dysuria, but will need a follow up CBC on WED, ___ to
confirm improved WBC (15.4 today). By the time of discharge on
POD #12 the patient was ambulating with assistance, the wound
was healing and pain was controlled with oral analgesics. The
patient was discharged to ___ in good condition with
